Last night I went to my usual spot on the A.R. to catch some dinks, take some photos (got some nice shots will post later) and maybe hook into a nice half pounder. Had several grabs to start and landed a 9-10" baby. On the next cast I hooked another. Had him about ten feet away and from the deep, a huge shadow darted and snatched it. I guessed it was about 40 plus inches and fat! Obviously the striper was very hungry because it wouldn't let go. I had my 4 wt and 5x leader. Not great for a monster in the current...LOL....it took me into my backing and I had enough. Pinched and popped the line.
I was surprised to see that monster up that early. Is this usual?
