FishnDave Posted July 10 Author Posted July 10 13 hours ago, snagged in outlet 3 said: On a 9 weight?😁 I wasn't expecting the micro opportunity, so I happened to be using the 8wt because of the other species I was fishing for. Could easily have used the 9, tho. 😜 Y'know... some anglers like to see how big of a fish they can catch on light line. I think they'd be pretty proud of a 10:1 ratio... a 20 pound fish on 2 lb test, for example. My best is probably a 35 lb fish on 8 lb test... 4.375:1. A ratio is a ratio. With the mosquitofish, the ratio went the other way. I didn't weigh the mosquito fish, but I looked up average weights for mosquitofish, and its about 1 GRAM! 1 gram is .0022 lbs and I was using 12 lb tippet! So... if my calculations are accurate... I just totally rocked a 1:5455 ratio! 🥇 🏆 nomolites, bfishn, tjm and 3 others 1 5
