One for five today. Several pods came by & no takers on the P.P. Black Stripper nor a hand tied. Then, on the Maribou, a pod came by and I got an interest, but the fly was spit. I put it back out, & right away, had it mouthed, taken out 10’ or so, then spit again. Put fly back out; again, a hit! Three back-to-back hits is highly unusual! Same result though... spit fly. Then nothing for an hour, until I hooked and landed this 4 pounder, who bent that #12 hook pretty good. I put on a hand-tied, got ahold of one I estimate @ 10 lbs. Lost him trying to drag him ashore after a 15 minute tussle, when the 4x tippit snapped. Lesson: no more 1x #12 hooks & nothing less than 6 lb. leader.
