10,000 casts huh! That's some sore muscles as I recently discovered. I threw that Castaic hardhead yesterday from 8 until 2 when I just couldn't do it anymore. I didn't catch anything. But I don't feel bad about it. It's the first time I ever went out with just a swimbait and one rod. So I figure I haven't paid my dues yet. It will be happening more often as I really REALLY want to hang a double digit fish this spring.
Of course owning more than one swimbait, Hammers not included, would help! LOL
Thanks for the encouragement on the BnT board the other day. It helped a lot.
