PB's are awesome!

Clarkhess, looks like the change in weather also changed your luck. These cloudy days will trigger the bigger fish into biting! Good Bass!

Got a decent Largie this morning on Sammamish. A 5-7 on a Senko from some semi-isolated pads. She wrapped around the pads a couple times and I had to go in and untie her. The next cast hooked 4 to 4 1/2 lber. After a few seconds the hook broke at the bend.

The hook broke at the bend? Was that hook older than me? Be honest. I'd be happy to mail you some new Gamakatsus. I have some extras. Just PM me your address.
RE:WL.com "Not Quite Trophy But Still Nice Bass Pictures" Gallery 2011
They are about 20 years old, been in the box all along. These are the first that have broken. [read my fishing report] Am going to get more Wed. while I'm in Auburn.
So I tied on a different brand hook that is about 15 years old. But no bites after that. Haven't broken one of those----yet.

haha, those are some old hooks. Nice pig.
RE:WL.com "Not Quite Trophy But Still Nice Bass Pictures" Gallery 2011
But the thing is, one of those same hooks I straightened out pretty good when I pulled it out from under a dock. I even said to myself, "That isn't any 'blank' pound test line!". Bent that hook back and caught more fish with it until I finaly lost it under another dock. That was this year after I started using florocarbon line on the senko rod/reel that I started using mid summer. So it isn't every hook, but with only a couple hooks left, I'll just throw them away and buy new ones.
