I was just wondering. The last time I drifted the great rivers of the OP I got my line caught up in someone elses lost gear quite afew times. Each time I was lucky enough to pull my gear back to the boat there was a lost line hooked to it. Some of this line or should I call it cable looked to be 30lb. test or better. Now I know that we all hate to lose a fish but these rivers were full of steel head average 10lb. to 20lb. Do you not think it is more sporting to fish with a light line? I have pulled in 40lb. kings with 12lb line now this is really fun the fish has a chance and so do you. Just hook it and real it in as fast as you can? Is that fun? I allways try to fish lighter line that the fish I expect to catch. Just wondering. Let me know what you think.
