Had a great day targeting shallow boulders on spawning flats using a Vision 110, caught this one and many others while casting right up against large boulders and quickly snapping it on slack line every few seconds. Using light line and keeping the drag a little loose is key to keeping fish pinned on the light wire hooks that come on the 110. The Tatula Elite is an incredible reel that casts very far with ease and having a 7.1 or higher ratio reel is key to picking up line quickly when using a jerkbait.
