#6913, "RE: New Brighton 9# Striper" In response to In response to 1
I was tubing, but he hit between me and the beach, kind of diagonally towards the beach and I was within the outside casting range if someone could rely cast. There was a guy throwing a homemade Pencil Popper like the ones I make and getting 30-50' past me, if I got anywhere near him. The fish didn't give me a slayride in the tube but he did a good job of turning me in whatever direction he wanted to go, first upswell, then downswell, then towards the beach, and I stopped him as he was heading out to sea.
