Default Great advise from members leads to a happy ending
Last week I asked for advise about how to set your drag properly, after reading everyone's advise I got out for a little fishing and same spot as last time I hooked in to a good fish. But this time I was ready the drag was set almost perfect and just one minor adjustment during the fight I got the beauty in to shore. A nice fat brown about to and a half pounds, made my night. In the long run just wanted to say thanks for all the help, made my night

I only keep about one fish a year for a little BBQ and its the small ones that are just over legal size. I don't mind putting the bigger ones back.
