After about 2 straight months of learning how to use the LC and skunking, I landed my first 12 inch perch and 15 inch YFC. Thereafter, I caught my first, followed by my second legal halibut in an area that halibut are not widely known to exist. To date, we are talking 7 legal butts, 5 short butts and alot of large BSPs and other fish...I know, not hugely successful, but these were quality fish that I would not likely have caught on crack or other such artificials. Bottom line, there is a reason S.W.A.T. mainly throw LC's and the reports show for it.
Never give up!
