Thats interesting to know you caught it with a fresh bluefish. Mind me asking what kind of tackle you were using as far as size line, hook, weight? How far your drop was?

Die if you must, but die on your home turf with your face to the wind, not in some stinking hellhole 2,000 kilometers away, among people you neither know nor care about.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
