CarolinaRigger, get out there and do it! They're out there lurking, just waiting to be caught.
I'm trying, I've been trying the whole time lol. 49 lbs on rod and reel is hard to top sometimes, lol. On trotline I'm still chasing 63.57 lbs, which was officially weighed and was 2 lbs shy of the Martin Creek Lake record at the time. I caught both of them when I was 17, lol.
