...and a PERFECT shot.

130cm railgun with flopper has been my personal sweet spot for a bigger gun. We've shot big gulfies, big yellows, seabass, cabrilla, parrots, wahoo, the list goes on and on with 130cm guns.
If you want to dive real deep and shoot big fish I suggest carbon though, that was the only reason I gave up my seasniper 130 for a pathos 130.
RA does make great shafts, I've not ripped a flopper off them, broke one at the flopper when I shot a ling at point blank range once but that shaft was like 3 years old anyways. Some people dont like that carbon steel shafts rust but I really never cared at all. Some of my shafts are literally rust from end to end and they are still ready to go.

Thanks for watching it. I make videos because it is fun, but it is nice to know others find it interesting.
The whale was one of those once in a lifetime type deals. Super stoked.

Someone had to let it slip. Let the moral objections begin.
