Hyperloops get record catch at Laurentia.

Just thought I would share this with you guys.

I took my dad and brother fishing this weekend to Laurentia as the fishing there is normally quite easy so we were guaranteed some fish.

On Sunday morning we were doing a rebait and I got caught on the snag fishing peg1 halfway between the peg and the opposite margin. I jumped in the boat and went out to try and retrieve the line and when I got to the middle I could feel I was really vas. Directly over the snag I pulled and pulled harder thinking I would break off but every time stopped being afraid I would break my rod, when I gave slack I could feel a heavy thud on the end of my line so I gave it horns and saw my lead core come up next to the boat out of the water and grabbed it, luckily I had hooked the end of what was a 6 meter long tree stump weighing easily more than 150kg.

Seeing the commotion others came out with their boats and after about 45 min we managed to remove the beast.

After that I dont think I will ever replace my Shimano Hyperloops.

I used them with Banax Helicons, Relix 20lb sinking braid, Fox braided leadcore, Fox Coretex coated braid and Fox Armour long shank hooks.

Biggest catch of my life::H

I think you've done MANY anglers a big favour by removing that stump! I lost a fish there myself, and almost a second one... and I know at least 4 guys that have lost fish on that thing...

Shimano rods are good...I have the Beastmasters and on one session lifted up a chunk/custer of reed roots off the bottom (from the boat) and brought it up to the surface using my rod... It was about 1mx1m, bug and chunky, lol....

Good rods...

Just 38 days late with that catch. Can you please return all my rigs attached to the stump? hehe

Hehe I have a little hyperloop reel. I didnt know you get hyperloop rods as well. But the reel is great quality as well. My bud caught a 12kg carp on the little reel.
