    You should try this out on a 10 foot BnM ultralight with 8 lb test line. Caught on a 1/32 crappie jig orange and chartreuse. It would not fit in the dip net. We slid a rope up its tail and cinched it behind its head to get it in the boat. Weighed 26 lbs. Still alive in a pond with lots of dumb bream and small channel cats. They may be dinner in a few days.

    Done it....was a blast! Caught a 24 pounder on a 10' bgjp with six pound test line many years ago. Was casting jigs and cork in arkabutla spillway.

    Been there. I hooked one that big or bigger last summer on a crank and ended up breaking not only the crank it hit but also another crank it wound up in. I wasn't real happy about that.

    Buffalo13 caught, weighted, photoed and released a 50+ pound flathead on KY Lake 2-3 years ago while 2 poling with 6 pound mono.

    A buddy of mine caught a 70+ pound blue cat on a crankbait several years ago on Lake Jackson in GA during a club tournament. Took him over an hour to net it. We weighed it on club scales and released it.
