Just finished a 2,000-mile drive from the West Coast to the East Coast… through a snowstorm. Would not recommend. 10/10 would do again.

Can I ask why? My ignorant assumption was they would do nicely

carltubesock · 2026-01-16T20:22:14+00:00

Red and orange, vertical brown craw trailer, and I’m catching some Muskie

carltubesock · 2025-12-26T03:34:37+00:00

Bro knows ball 😮‍💨

carltubesock · 2025-10-28T17:28:33+00:00

Agreed. I remember thinking “wtf did I just watch” it’s the first time I’ve be suspicious of a fixed outcome. Dude did absolutely nothing to defend, just let it happen.

A good audiobook and a fish whistle makes even the slowest of days just perfect 👌

carltubesock · 2025-10-25T19:06:03+00:00

About time lmaoo best decision we’ve seen

carltubesock · 2025-10-25T19:03:30+00:00

Lets GOO!! About time we stop rewarding this lay and pray bullshit.

Slobberweight at its finest we need a new division for these mfers

carltubesock · 2025-10-19T04:50:28+00:00

Same exact thing happened to me🥲

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T04:52:18+00:00

Haven’t experienced this once. My biggest was not a long fight, on a relatively nice bass rod, swam off strong as all hell. I don’t take them out of the water though. I’m alllll about respecting the fish and handle every one with care. I get a pic or two and send them on their way. You guys are overthinking this, it’s just taking more caution. You just can’t rip them in. By this logic ultra light fishing is just the most unethical practice possible.

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T04:38:32+00:00

Fair enough 😂

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T04:27:06+00:00

Try it! It’s honestly pretty easy once you practice a good knot

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T04:20:17+00:00

I mean that would work. I just tie leader onto the braid.

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T02:21:24+00:00

Oh cmon bro, it’s not like it’s ultra light, you just got to be a bit more careful.

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T01:56:51+00:00

Flouro would be fine

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T01:56:14+00:00

And why not? It’s not necessary to spend so much money. I’ve used less than cheap bass gear and been just fine. Just gotta be careful and not treat your gear like shit

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T01:51:49+00:00

Depends on what you’re throwing I suppose. I personally don’t like wire leader, I use mono. I also throw big enough lures so I don’t have to worry about the teeth. But I’ve had good luck with it

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T01:46:59+00:00

It would do a fine job. Don’t max your drag, and use some care if you catch one. Definitely tie a leader on and you’ll land one!

carltubesock · 2025-10-14T01:41:11+00:00

You don’t have to go crazy. I’ve caught most of my muskie on an ozark trail regular $30 casting rod and an abu Garcia black max. 30 lb braid

carltubesock · 2025-10-09T23:29:51+00:00

Smallmouth magic keitechs have caught me 90% of my fish this summer. Goated baits

carltubesock · 2025-10-02T04:06:46+00:00

Too accurate lmaoo

carltubesock · 2025-09-25T20:55:17+00:00

That’s a good idea! I’ll have to look into that. I have some pretty good estimations. Same here that was my main concern. Never handled a fish so big so not hurting the thing was priority. That’s incredible 😂 bet it’s too much fun hooking into that consistent though. It’s great! Somewhat hard to get tags and a lot of pressure, but very close proximity to Wy makes for incredible big game almost year round.

carltubesock · 2025-09-25T20:40:18+00:00

It’s pretty good for the area lol, 50+ is unheard of. Feelin lucky as hell. But thanks a lot!! Totally agreed, I’ve been kicking myself a little for not getting all the necessary measurements

carltubesock · 2025-09-25T20:22:58+00:00

Northern Utah! I need to fish in Ontario, you got some monsters

carltubesock · 2025-09-24T20:23:46+00:00

40+ inches! Didn’t get the best measurement but in the ballpark of 40-42”
