I put 14 in the boat today, mostly on the Dinger worm, couple on the swim n dinger. Size ranges from 1.16 to 2.24lbs. I got broken off 3 times, fish got off in the reeds 4 times and had 7 get off on the way to the boat. Put in at Lakefront Park and went to the left out of the canal and fished along the reed line looking for some pepper grass as well. Went down about a mile total and then went back around near Chisholm park, still fishing along the reeds line and in pepper grass.

Went out today to test the Shimano Mastiff line against the Seaguar Invisx and put 9 in the boat ranging from 1.18 to 2.88lbs. Started off with the Yum swim n dinger watermelon red flake and got bites right away but the hook wasn't coming out of the worm and into the fish so I missed a handful right out of the gate. I was using my Trika 6X rod with a Soleus XCS reel with the Mastiff on it and switched over to the 13fishing Muse Black rod with the Seaguar on it and had the same problem although I did get one in the boat. I was throwing up into the reeds and working it back out into clearer water in about 4 - 8 feet deep. I took the old hook off the Mastiff and retied on a new hook and that mostly solved the problem. Still had a couple that I missed, but it seemed normal after retieing. Both lines have excellent feel, castability and manners. About the only difference that I can see is that the Mastiff didn't get any nicks or frays in it from the reeds, lily pads and the pepper grass that I was fishing in. It did cast a little bit farther as well, but that could be partly from the rod AZ it does cast farther than the 13fishing rod anyway. (One of the selling points) Overall, pleased with the new line and like the fact that I didn't have to retire during the day.
