I thought snakehead too, but was scared to admit it. We have them bad in southeastern PA. The giant snakehead has the ability to service it colder waters, but it's for sure not a carp.
Last fall my high rigger fired and started screaming right away. Instantly we noticed something at the surface way behind the boat but it wasn't budging. After a long struggle we boated an Offshore starboard planer with a ton of braid attached. After hand lining at least 100 yards of braid and a snap weight we landed a 5lb heathy lake trout.
Ended up losing the board last season while fishing at night... Easy come easy go.
Anyone know a ballpark on how much he charges to upgrade a drag? I'm about to order the parts and do it myself but if the price is right I will just ship them off.
4,6,8 are all sold. 5 is pending payment. Suttons are currently listed on Ebay and will post here if not sold. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Large-Sutton-Spoon-Lot-44-71-88-78-61-RARE-/231781755513? I've been seeing crazy prices for Suttons online lately so I thought I might as well clear out some of my duplicates.
