With the boat sold I grabbed the hip waders and hit the Steel Bridge Launch at 6:00am. Now I haven't had those things on in at least ten years. Not a leak in them. Anyways; Started with my favorite Bone White Super Spook right off the launch. Landed two 16"ers in about 30 casts. Gonna be a good morning. Release fish #2 move over to the left side of the launch in the bay. Cast/ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ/SNAP....................silence..........splash! Awh Shite! My 30lb Power Pro "SNAPPED" and sent my spook sailing! Walk back to the truck and attach a 5 1/2" GUN FISH! About 20 casts a Pike nails it in the cove. About a 45 second fight and she spits the hook! Excited cast back to that area! Cast/ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ /SNAP....................silence..........splash! Awh Shite! Gun Fish Gone! Back to the truck and attach a smaller Gun Fish! Fished about an hour with a couple of small blow ups! I spot my Spook with in casting distance! :shock: :shock: About 20 casts later I snag it! :o :lol: :o Re attache it, three cast later (Need I really say it again?) Called it quits. Stopped at Pond Brook! Large fish jumping everywhere. Not a bite! Called it a day! Overall two 16"ers from Lilly on shore and a good fight from a Pike isn't bad. But as Lilly always does! As soon as the fog lifted and some light shined through The Bite Stopped Immediately! :arrow: Oh I forgot! No pictures! To hard to hold the camera phone, rod and fish while wadding in thigh deep water.

Are you sure your tying a good knot for braid? Its hard to believe you broke 30lb braid 3 times in one trip!! Sounds to me more like you are using a knot not designed for braid. I use the Palomar (Spelling) and throw 3 ounce Superstrike in the saltwater with Power Pro and havent had 1 snap yet in 2 years with the same line! I just today ordered a new 1500yard spool online as I do believe Im starting to push it with that line. Actually I replaced 2 rels worth this year but havent been using those 2 reels much so 1500 was more then I needed but at least I have it around when needed.
