WWJ Whipping with joe..using the mullet I snagged a turtle on the rear right flipper..fought him for over 2 hrs and 17 mins..excellent Drag and the Cabo did well..longest fight with a turtle..almost landed him to get my lure but the braid broke and he is Ok except for the lure..
This GT/Ulua dedicated to my Son Chris(Tinong)..my favorite fisher guy..he has landed 4 gts..largest 54# when he was 17..the key to success..let 'em run, be patient..He could not make it at the Olivas Reunion 2015 so he said, "Dad catch the BIG one" ..
WWJ Whipping with Joe, had 45 mins to whip..tide was going hi about 1ft.. big and lot of surges since hurricane..might be out there ..spheros 6KSW, 50# PP, uni knot to power swivel, surgeons knot, 3-4 ft 80# Ande mono leader, rapala loop knot to proto type 1 kaku lure black with glitter and red eyes(this has landed 2 GTs earlier 16#,, 20#)7ft St Croix MH. went to area 1 made 15 casts..moved to area 2 about 100 yds first cast..the GT takes the kaku straight out maybe close to 150 yds..thought I was gonna get spooled so put pressure on the spool..the rest is history in the making..
WWJ Whipping with joe..just picked this up from a friend of mine..testing out new rod..Shimano Trevala 6'6" MH great rod except for the butt, too long and after about 10 minutes of whipping my arm from the elbow up to the top of my arm started to hurt..too heavy..but I did get used to it..
WWJ Whipping with joe..Donation by Jeff for me to test the NEW Uglystik GX2..7ft MH . For $45..can't beat the price for this rod..& 7 year warranty..comparing this with the fenwick HMG, HMX 7ft MH..Good price made well, china, bigger guides and thicker vs the fenwicks. Butt is a bit longer and 4 less guides than the fenwick..more bulky..9.9oz vs 5.1oz for the rod..hard on my forearm but can do the crank and pop with the rod in the down position..I prefer the rod to be in the up position toward the lure..easier to set the hook rod in the up position vs down position..
By popular request..my technique for my reel setup for The EPIC 100# GT..When I first joined the forums..many criticized the rod, reel I was using including the lure and the knots. I was getting spooled quite often thats for sure. But I am a fast learner. My comment at that time "I am going to shoot an elephant with a BB gun" because its a better story and its My challenge and so I did just that. More of finesse fishing for me..I enjoy the sport.
Just got done with a family portrait and had about an hour to whip...before I go to the other one...so changed to my BDU and off I went..with the stradic 4kci4, 20# PP and favorite kaku lure(thanks Gary), 9ft fenwick M..little too flimsy and soft for this application but thought I would try it out..since I was going for small game..seen some mullets jumping from a predator..I dont have the orca so used the kaku..looks like an akule with red eyes..the hook was in its throat so he could not swim,, very well but fought at the edge of the dropoff..and could see the fish bleeding as I was trying to land him. So the guys wanted one for the fish and grill so kept this one since the hook was deep..Dont know what kind of fish it is..measured almost 26" and 6.25#..
WWJ whipping with joe, Bg failed after 11 hours, sent for repair at Daiwa, 5 bearings replaced..used about 6 hours of whiiping crank and pop with a 2oz lure and small game..hard to crank suspect bad main gear and pinion. This is the end of the field test. I will not field test the saltis as the Daiwa tech says it has the same gears as the BG. So after 30 reels in about 4 years..spheros 5ksw/6ksw is the best for me I am on my 4th one..the other 3 has had over 300 hours of crank and pop and small game, only failure was the roller bearing..in 3 of them.
Love is just a game
Oooh ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah (telling you)
Baby...
You cant keep doing this shit...
Oh oh, love is just a game...
Oh, listen babe...
Quit playing around, like it's a game,
You tell me to go, you tell me to stay,
Living with you is emotional,
Roller coaster ride, like you're just gone and hide,
Crossing the T's, and dotting the I's,
Trying to make it work but you won't let me,
It's like you're fighting with your self,
But baby I can tell, that you really don't wanna leave,
Love is a game for you, I see, but it means a lot more to me,
To ride it out when the going gets rough,
Then she closed the first real love,
Can't keep playing around with me,
If you really don't want me to leave,
Cos if love is a game, then I don't wanna play,
Cos there's someone out there for me,
Love is just a game...
Heard you were on the phone just the other day,
Talking to your girls, telling you that I'm leaving,
If you didn't mean it then why did you say it,
Cos love it ain't a game to me,
I'm packing my bags here I go again,
Wanna kick me out, ok, well I'm leaving,
And with those shorties came, so baby tell me
What's it gonna be,
I'm tired of all the fussing, and the fighting
We can't keep, just going on this way
So tired babe and angry,
You hurting me over and over again,
You making me wanna leave,
U don't understand just what you're doing to me
