snipped
stunned me with the viciousness of
the take, then simply turned in a power i've never felt before. had them
on until they decided to zip away

It's what keeps me coming back..

...they broke me off laughingly easy (5x and 4x tippet).

3X in Penn's is the standard. If they won't hit it, it's not worth the
heartbreak..although Roger showed up with some super-duper tippet from
the Northlands, maybe that would work better??

i did a poor job in the play. i'm a believer. mike
told me where the biggest fish holds (on the last night of my fishing, i
might add), so i'm gonna try for him next year.

Had to give him a fighting chance...I did fish that hole on Sunday,
but they were all terrified.. I did happen to hit a hole for 6 fish
on the way out including a 19 incher, but it didn't look as fat as
your big fish..

I do believe an early 16 incher in Mike's run took the prize this year
and kept the incumbent's namesake..

It was good fishing with you again this year, glad the Great State Of
PA could oblige this time around with the plentiful hatches over many
a risin' fish. See ya in a few weeks.
