Lil' Stripe -

Can I take out an insurance policy on your 5 wt. ????

If you're unlucky enough to stick one on the 5 ...... I TOLD YOU SO .

Most would choose a 12 weight for Pacific Albacore.

A 10 weight would be sporting.

Good luck..............

Dude, you are crazy with that 5wt!

My buddy catches stripers on his Winston BIIx 3 wt and I think he's nuts...His drag on his reel is now non-existent.

Also talked with a guy today that caught a 36", 18 lb striper on the American on his 4wt....another wacko.

But damn, tuna on the 5wt??!!! I gotta see this!

it ended up being lumpier than grandmas thighs. couldnt get out far enough. didnt even get a salmon to the boat, but we hooked two.
