Peytonator Extreme Angler Registered: 05/05/10 Posts: 2047 Loc: Katy, TX	I was fishing a local pond this evening for bluegill using a 4' 6" ultralight rod, 6lbs line, and a little Zebco 11 reel. As I was reeling in a 'gill this monster bass comes up and inhales it commencing a 5 minute tug-o-war! _________________________

Jacob_Breaux Pro Angler Registered: 04/16/10 Posts: 678 Loc: Pearland, TX	awesome fish! I once caught a 5 pound carp on ultralight and it was one heckuva fight! just a word of advice for the future, if your releasing the bass, try to minimize its contact with surfaces like grass, concrete, etc because it takes away the fish's protective slime, which acts as a jacket to protect te fish from disease and such...still a great fish!!! _________________________
