Nice fish! I could only get the front third of the one that broke my 5 wt in the net.

Got lucky and landed a 27" about 10lb cat on 6lb tippet one time.

I used to have a two piece 5 wt that I kept rigged for when I only had time to go to the pond, had a cat in almost the same exact place crack the rod right @ the ferrule while I was fighting it. That was a smaller fish:) -----Original Message----- From: 'Anthony Spezio' via VFB Mail [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ] Sent: Tuesday, June 7, 2016 11:33 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [VFB] Fishing I had the same thing happen at a slew on Crooked Creek but I got the see the Carp. I thought I was snagged but the line slowly started coming up. The Carp was right up on top, it looked like a submarine coming up. It just stayed there for a few seconds and rolled breaking off my last Chili Pepper. I tried to have it take another fly with no luck.

Moved about ten feet along the shore, realized it was hooked & even though I was letting line out through my fingers, the 3x tippet snapped about 6 inches from the leader. Sounds like a big old catfish. Get some heavy tippet on and go back and catch that dood so we know what it was. <G> af -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
