thnx ketchn

CPW - No worries, Randy knows a lot more about this stuff than I want to, lol. Matched the rod with a Pflueger Patriarch 10. it's not balanced, by much, but it's used for two handed casting anyway.... You should probably get at least a 15 or 20 series reel. I don't because they take a lot of line to fill.

Great fish!! Sure wish we had gills like that in Tennessee.

Randy - the St Croix rods I have are the panfish series.
great site dbd
If you like the lite Stan, you would really like the UL.

Been reading up and checking out the UL baitcasters - that's some really crazy stuff

I like the Panfish and Trout Series of rods from St Croix . They are the most sensitive, advanced , UL rods designed in the USA . And you get a warranty in case you have a failure. Gillchaser

We used to have bluegill that size until the Asian Carp ate all the grass, hydroplane, duckweed and every other green foliage. Thanks Texas Parks and Wildlife for bending to the will of a few wealthy lakefront owners who were inconvenienced by having to clear their docks every 3-5 years.

Are you sure they stocked Asian carp? I highly doubt that.....must have been grass carp.....Asian carp are plankton feeders....I’ve never read of any state wildlife agency stocking Asian carp.

Regards

Just pulled up several news articles about that...it is grass carp.

Yes, you are right. I knew they were not native but did not realize the difference from other carp. Definitely grass carp and they are still in the lake in great numbers. Thx.
