Don't fish in super strong currents with a crappy reel...
Froze my butt off but sleep well all day today.
That really sucks when decent fish is lost like that.
Least he hooked up.
I hooked up earlier this year with a fish in some nice current (also a rubber shad (Panther Martin)), really adds to the fight...lost mine too, but not spooled

Its extremely frustrating not being able to fish this time of the year, thanks all for the reports and pics.
