great catch there. you already got the setup in terms of rod and reel, put 600m kingfisher 45lb braid and .55 mono topshot on the torium and you're on the money with a great setup.

Awesome catch on straight mono! You already have a more than ample setup. The extra cost will come with the terminal tackle and the bait!!

Great catch and well done!

Yet another addict is born - - Nothing like the natural high given when the rod is pulled flat and the line peels off.

Man I'm having withdrawal symptoms, not long and i'm going cold Turkey

That Bronzie had your name and number written on her the day it was born. Well done (bet you thought and hoped it was your 100lbs KOB)
