The 28lb drag version is not a Raptor.
The 50lb has Raptor on the reel.

Occasionally sea fish for bass, but spinning is highly restircted here given our only game fish is trout and the damage it does to them, strictly fly. Been getting mad luck with a yellow egg lately, talking 15 bites an hour stuff. Took out 4 rainbows on Saturday at a weight of 10lbs. Not my favourite so it'll probs last all winter.

Took a friend out yesterday.
I throw past the spot I want to bring my spinner bait across the fish.
Just as it's getting there my buddy throws a Senko right on top of my lure and an 8 to 9lb bass engulfs the Senko.
I was so pissed. My lure was so close my line was wrapped around his hook in the fishes mouth.
Biggest bass I've ever held or seen live.

Always get excited for salmon season
I like to go late september and see them spawn up rivers that previously have nothing in them.
Peoples minds are blown that salmon go in these little creeks.
Wish I still had my fishing gear. Thinking soon il buy some new stuff.

Question for your northeastern bros. Is it too late in the season to cast a line from the surf out at Cape Cod? What kind of bait? All the tackle shops close this time of year. How about pier fishing in Rhode Island?

The other guy i found was a downsyndrome guy who was also a native he had a 30lb bag of seashells tied to his waist, after i pulled him into my boat and was bringing him back to shore, he jumped out of boat at 50mph saying that hes going to make millions collecting sea shells and i never saw him again, lol crazy story

Finally got my first striper! Went to the Cape with very low expectations. Thought it would be freezing but it actually wasn't that bad. You'll never guess what I caught him on.
Fish bites. lmao. Total luck.

it depends on where and what kind of fish you are trying to catch. i would say just go to your local sporting goods store and ask them
