that looks soooo fun

[@kaboom4679]

I caught a duck once . That was just weird .
But the weirdest thing I ever hooked was a horse .
It had come to investigate what the human was doing ( flyfishing ) next to the creek and got a little to close to my back cast ....
Anyway , no harm down and no tackle damaged ( miraculously ) .

[@TopKnoxFishing]

That's crazy!

Got a bait snagged on the lake above that dam and when I went to retrieve it, I'd hooked a dead cow that was under the water.

What model /action hellcat rods you prefer for bait fishing striper?

[@TopKnoxFishing]

What size striper?

[@FishingwithPhillips]

@TopKnoxFishing the upper end of what you catch. I fish the northeast for larger stripers lots of 30-40lbers but I like a real soft tip for circle hooks. I run striper stealths but availability sucks and want to find a similar rod kind of between the MH and heavy actions. Figured a quality catfish rod like what you use should fit the bill, just trying to get a gauge on action before I buy one.
