RKF Posted July 21, 2016 Author Posted July 21, 2016 23lb'er, I had an issue with the slider coming off, which led to hand lining it in the last 10' or so. Had to deal with that last run with line going through my fingers. Drag was screaming for first several minutes of the fight. Lighting was good. Weeds are horrible this year compared to past.
