  1. The biggest I know that's been officially confirmed is the Washington DC record of 57 lbs at the tidal basin in 1983. It was a different river then but I'm sure there are still a few still swimming around. I believe I've encountered 4 fifties when I was not retired and hooked 2 of them but never landed because I'm one impatient sob (hook pulls lol).

    Not at all the 67 outta snake river ? I know bowfished , but it truly represents potential N american waters have . Plus that 65 lb mirra . (rod and line fish) the vid is floating somewhere in the great halls of cyberspace .

    Here is a you tube video that demonstrates mono - braid....

    Video was good ,,,,, BUT , (and this is a BIG but) Are they comparing 20 lb mono to 20 lb Power Pro ??? cause 20 lb P.P. only has a 8 lb diameter ( the diameter is key here) , it's the 80 that is equivalent to 20 lb mono . Mine and about 100 anglers I know findings are far from that . I have even switched to 80 lb P.P. for pike as it's stronger and more flexible than the traditional steel leaders .
