Best fish of the season so far. This guy was way back in the pads, about 5 feet to the right of where my popper landed. I gave it one good “bloop” and then the water just bulged as the fish charged. It wasn’t easy to let it happen and not set the hook to soon! I was using my 8 weight, a floating line, and one of my furled leaders. The tippet was 12 # Maxim so I could lean on this fish all the sway back to the boat.
