That’s a fine fish! I’ll bet it was fun. I love the thump but I like it better when you set the hook and the rod stops, or moving the fish. My heart skips a beat right about then. Congrats on the PB.
Hey guys,
I got my personal best crappie on JDM gear today. It was 2.03 lbs and 15 inches. I would like to say thank to all you guys for the info posted here. I used a 63 ultralight fantail by major craft, ballistic 1000 fw, and Master Limited Super Ester 2.3. All I kept thinking was please don’t let the line break. It was an awesome fight. Drag pulling. Thanks Again guys. Good Luck.

Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
Awesome. Congrats.
Good catch. Is that the handle of the rod in the rod holder? It looks big.

Wow, that’s a nice Slab. Going to pair my Ballistic with the Finetail, hoping it will be a sweet setup. What bait fooled that old boy?

Hello,
Yes that is the handle of the rod on the right. I got him on a John Deer green 2”curly tail grub with a 1/16 plain head. Oh. I did mean to put Fine tail. Not fantail.
Thanks

That's a fish! I have the Finetail SUL 6'3", too, it's a fantastic rod. I think I might purchase the same exact rod but in the regular ultralight version. I wonder how much more powerful the UL is versus the SUL??
