Bear Lake 2-5-16 Why?

[SkunkedAgain]

Your last line hit the nail on the head, this was my whitefish rigged pole, the silly trout aren't supposed to hit that rod, they were supposed to hit my other pole with the braid on it, but as luck goes the big one hit my lightest combo. I think if I wouldn't have had a bad spot, I might have been okay, but then again this thing was running like that king salmon I had in Alaska and I don't know if I could have turned it even if I didn't have a weak spot. Funny some fish just fight different, this was one of those that was very unusual and took me beyond my current skill level. Hope I learn how to do better for my next chance. Later J
