GETTING READY FOR THE BIG ONE

Well spent most of the day getting ready for the trip on the Alabama River next week. We are going to spend a week on the river ,fishing log jams and deep holes. We will be targeting big Blues and Yellows. We will be thankful for any we catch but we are looking for the 100 lb'er. The closest I got last year was a 63 lb Blue caught on the Mobile River. I spooled my reels with 65# Power Pro and 40# Cajun RED lightnin. I will be using Gamakatus 8/0 Octopus and 11/0 Eagle Claw King Kahle hooks. The choice of weight's will 4 to 5 oz no [roll and a bank sinker up to 10 oz depending the current. The reels of choice on this trip will be the Ambassador 7000is3 Pro Rocket and Penn's 309. The rods will be Shakespeare's Tiger Rod's MH and H 7'. We will be use Skip Jack and live Bream for baits. And to all you Mother's that read this I hope y'all have a happy Mother's Day Sunday. Until next posting have a great day and take a kid fishing.
