Dave, are you in NC? That looks like a Gotcha on a Key Largo with 4500SS....and snow on the ground...looks like home base.


reels...washers/dryers, TV's, cars, refrigerators....my grandparents' stuff lasted 30 years, now you barely get 30 months before it breaks and cost more to fix than get a new one.

Yes, I'm about 25 miles NNE of Raleigh, NC .

That rod is a Penn 450 SS, load with 12 lb-test mono on a Chaos Rods ( Lake Worth, FL ), 7ft rated for 8-17 lb-test . . . Lure is a Gotcha !

Tight Lines !
