Look like you had a great time. I like those colors of the jig as well. It was also my 2nd trip out testing your braided line. I filled 3 more reels yesterday, now I have 2 with the yellow & 2 with the orange. I'm convinced this is the best braid I've ever used & I've used most brands, coming from a LMB background. It's slick, very castable, no stretch which makes it very sensitive & no memory what so ever! It will cast in a stiff wind & doesn't wrap up on the end of your rod like most braids. I will be a repeat customer & highly recommend it to anybody that wants to try braid or is a current braid user!!!!I didn't ever think I woukld use a colored line, but it sure helps notice those subtle hits, when they just lift the bait up, which happened several times today. The water here is clear enough that I had to use a flouro leader.  Nice props! And nice ketch btw!  Yea, he's been taking Ketchn photography lessons...SELF Portraits are the NEXT TRAINING LESSON...

Great job. I want to know what you did to get that jig out of the turtle's mouth?

Thank you for the play by play and the pics!
The Slab Bandit appears to be the one called 'Meller Yeller'.
Now onto the hand-tied jig. I love that color combination. I don't know if Matthew (Jigum) tied it, if so, I like to know the name of it so I can ask for it.
The braids. I must admit, I'm attracted to that orange colored braid for some reason.

I really like those pro-angler rods! Mite have to get me one of them 7 footers. Do they make em in one piece models?
