Micro Fishing attempt using #14 hook 2lb test - Paulpro - 03-04-2013 This is my first time fishing mono fishing line again in 15 years,and my first attempt at micro fishing..Let me know if I have the right tackle! I'm not even sure if I'm using the correct diameter line for it to be actually considered micro fishing. I hope the hook isn't to big or the split shot even[:/] Fun fight either way on 2lb test! My biggest on 2lb line [#0066cc][url "http://youtu.be/zEjscg0PMOo"]http://youtu.be/zEjscg0PMOo[/#0066cc][/url] [signature] Re: [Paulpro] Micro Fishing attempt using #14 hook 2lb test - RockyRaab - 03-07-2013 That might be a great accomplishment to a bass fanatic, Paul. But it is not at all uncommon to catch five pounds and up trout on one-pound tippets and #22 hooks while fly fishing. Not demeaning your feat, mind you, just giving some added perspective.

Smallest I ever used is #16 long shank hook and caught a nice spotted tilapia!,normally use them hooks to catch bait Thinking of going for big carp on this #14 hook haha! maybe a 20lb+ on 2lb [signature] Re: [Paulpro] Micro Fishing attempt using #14 hook 2lb test - bytebull - 03-08-2013 Nice catch Paul! I'm using 10lb mono this season and still worry about breaking my line or losing fish every time I hook one. 6lb test is the smallest I have ever gone and use that on my Crappie reels. Good job.[:p] [signature] Re: [Paulpro] Micro Fishing attempt using #14 hook 2lb test - idahoron - 03-08-2013 Speaking of micro set ups for large fish. Here is a video of me catching a Sturgeon that is right at 7 foot long on a trout pole.
