Fishing with my son

Was able to get out last weekend and take some son fishing.l for spades. We were having a tough time with spades breaking us off in the reef. My son finally got frustrated and pick up my Shimano Spheros 8000 and landed this fish. He must Increase,but I must decrease. John 3:30

Nice spadefish. You might try this to reduce the breakoffs. When the fish heads down to the reef structure flip the bail on your reel and give complete slack. Most of the time they will swim back toward the surface where you can resume the fight. Repeat as necessary. This works for me when using 12lb test for spades.

Very nice. I’ve never caught a spade, hope to one day.
