Not even close for me either. I've only had one that I know was over 40 and it treated me like its bitch. It was early September and I was in the very lower stretch of a river where I could still hear the breakers. I actually got to watch it follow my spinner, open its mouth, chomp, and turn within about 10 feet of me.

Then it peeled line like I wasn't there and put me in the only piece of wood in sight.
