I will be some. I just got the longer length mainly because it really didn't cost any more, and it leaves me a lot of line for if I ever get the ball snagged and have to cut the line. ______________________ The Mama Cocha Hobie PA 14 / Illinois USA Sent from my iPhone |

Congrats on the new PA purchase. Was in the Gulf this past Saturday. The weather was great and the trout bite was decent. ![]() |

I've had it out twice so far. Love everything about it. The only thing I have to either figure out or just give up on is running 2 poles. I got a double on..... one on the downrigger line and the other on a long line. If anyone was watching me I had to have looked like the keystone cops. Just after popping the clip, the other pole went off. Somehow got both to the net. |

As challenging as doubles can be, I have to say that they are never a bad thing. Worst I have ever had was 2 hybrids in 20 mph winds. Spun me around every which way. Both lines wrapped around each other so bad after landing the fish it was easier just to cut the lines and re-tie both of the flicker shads I was pulling. Still better than the alternative.....No bites at all. Congrats and tight lines. |

New boats are so much fun, better get a second job. The accessory list never ends. |
