It seems possible that the largest stella will be outclassed by these fish in the next 1-2 years. |

i'm hoping there is an uptick in some younger year classes. truthfully i really only want to target smaller fish with a spinning setup, 60-80# fish, they're fun. |

We hooked up with a 60-70" class fish last year on a 950ss. Did the job but it took 1 hours.
We really were pushing it. I wouldn't want to fight a bigger fish on it.
