Caught this beauty on a swim bait with my new bait caster setup... he was around 20", I would say around 5lbs... I let him go after the pic to bad my phone doesn't have enough memory for video... I had so many ppl around me wanting to see this fish lmao... maybe someone recorded it lol

Great striper, which swimbait/size and weight were you using.

this swim bait:

rod:

light for repeatedly casting, rod didn't bend that much with this fish... it bent more when i tried to free lift a 4oz pyramid sinker lol

reel:

works fine for me despite reviews, drag works good just have to set it for every different lure u use and test it a couple times...

string:
cheap $2.50 275yd 20lb mono, I saw a vid that said high lb makes bait casters easier to use...

I Was throwing a 5in white storm swim shad with a med light rod and spinning reel today but got nothing. I bought the black max reel about a month ago for largemouth bass fishing, great reel for the price.
