Those are some very nice fish! Not your usual buddies, but no slackers either, even the carp. They are an amazing fight.
Good on the Rio tippet. Unfortunately my tippet didn't hold when I had a nice one on this weekend, but it was my fault. It was a beautiful fish and I thought it was ready to come in and it wasn't. It made a last minute lunge and I didn't give it enough line to do so. My bad!
Cortland has a cleaner for its lines that seems to help with the knotting. I can't remember the name for sure, I think it was X something. Not very expensive either. You might give it a try.
