Great video, as always.

Those Kastkings fooled me for a short while, thought they were Abu 6000.

Great video of what looks to be a great time, Mike! That Molly Hatchet background is quite apropos.  8)

Nice video Mo, it appeared the handle on the little guy you were using at the end kept binding a little, but couldn't really tell.
Good job guys!

Great video Mo !!! I would love to try that sometime. We just have the smaller Bullhead or as we call them Hornpout here they are good eating but don't get real big. You really hit them good !!   John Taylor

   I think that's just when the fish shakes it stutters my winding of the handle...I noticed that too Sal when I first saw the footage. We actually had no equipment failures...all the rods and reels performed great. I do need to grind down the drag spacer a bit on the River King(orange handled reel) so I can put a spring washer back in place. When I installed a larger #10-66 drag star, it left no room for a spring washer, being as it's thicker than the stock #10-60. Without the spring washer, the drag comes on too fast. I also had to cut off the first 25-30 feet of line from both reels. When the fish ran under those pontoons while landing them it scraped the line up really bad.
   Thanks to everyone for the kind words! 8)
