My M.O. Is to head to the dock with my 2nd cup of coffee and catch a small bream on my bream buster. Then bait up a larger combo. I rigged the 712/Ugly Stik elite with a #6 octopus circle hook. This way I can catch a bream and leave it sit, or bait it with a bream whenever. I caught a 3 " bream and cast it out and 30 seconds later "bam"!

The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

That's about the fastest I've seen a repaired reel start hauling fish, nice work!
