Great effort on plastic
Looks about 8kgs or so. You must have a sweet spot out there Salmo.

Cheers Salmo, ive only ever
Cheers Salmo, ive only ever caught a couple of smaller ones in the 5 to 6 kg range. That was on a shimano raider snapper spin 6/8kg and 2500 stradic. Snapback in the pinky/white colour and bright pink did the damage there for me. They went really hard and smashed the plastic on the way down. Love to land something a little better though to see what they can really do on 12lb braid.
Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!
