[quote=NCCY;292788]It can be tough with reds. If you hook them around the jaw it's going to stay. Hook em in the mouth lining and maybe. They change direction after long runs and have violent head shakes. They are such muscular brutes. I have had days where I have hooked and fought 5-6 reds and gone home without a picture. I hooked two Saturday but lost both, so no post. But those days of bounty exist as well.[/QUOTE
Oh I am addicted.. I am even talking about buying a skiff, for carp here in the foothills and then for reds... Nothing fancy but something for skinny water. This was only my second time, but I assure you it won't be the last. It was a killer adrenaline rush.
Your right, they smash the fly like it owes them something and the run was like nothing else. I would say its more addicting than bonefishing.... Something about tailing reds in the grass, its like no other.
And Fly_In_VA you are right on the Turkey hunting comparison... 0-60 baby... Hearing a gobbler answer yards from you makes your hair stand up.
