well i got my mail today and included was a box from Team 57' i got my first 57 appearal, so i was stoked, this meant i had to see what effect it would have if any. only had about an hour or so to hit the water so i cruised to a local spot in south bay s.d., i started drop-shotting a berk gulp shrimp to catch this guy,


nothing big but so far the hoodie was workin'

then i opted to switch it up and go for one on the swimbait, utilizing some tactics i picked up from my boat outing. this worked out keen as i got a monster hit, we locked up in a head shake battle with niether one giving an inch, then, in fear of snapping i tuned my drag down and let him move some. drag starts slippin' but i regain the upperhand and land this one.


heres the close-up

Wingnut,

thank you and thanx for your representation of the Team, the angel shark was rediculous, not including the other flatties. you emphasize the possabilities one has, when doing what we do, i think we all try a little harder because of your post.


Steve092,

man the next time im in the high desert im hittin' you up and were checkin S-WooD, i miss those fish, thanx


supasportkid,

i agree, theres something about those spot, when i tell the doc thats all i can see, he persribes me Gulp.


crystalmath79,

Megsdad,

thank you and welcome, i feel im still new here too, so your in good company. yeah check it out, im stoked on my gear, this forum has taken over my life. your next!



troutdog,

wudup' i dont do neither one justice, but they are sharp, thanx.



margrave13,

you gotta' get you some spottie action fo'sho', not much compares to them, as far as easily accessible fishing is concerned (geographically speaking that is) thanx for the comment.


Fisherman57,

thanx for your post, im honored, the gear works, ive been catchin' fish with it while being protected from the elements. good stuff, when you come out with longsleeve shirts in grey or white im all over it. dig the invite, but probably wont make it, somehow our lines shall share the same waterbody someday. thanx for what you started, and to whomever started FN.n

Glad to see you fly the colors and the luck that came with it.
