It was a really hard day, me and my dad were exhausted, we started fishing at 8 A.M, in the morning we didn't catch even 1 fish, the guider said it was a really good day, but it didn't come as expected. One action here and there but, until 5 P.M, we didn't catch nothing. But, we didn't forgive. We were down the river and the guider said to me so throw right after a stream, were he said the dorado stays to hunt, so, I was with a spinning reel and a 5'8 rod, my dad took this Mepps lure has more than 10 years, and it was in the box, without any use. I throw the lure right where the guider told me, and then, I thought it get stuck on a rock, but then a massive 12kg dorado jumped outside the water, I was so excited, so much nervous to lose the fish, after 10 minutes of a really good fight, my father took the dorado with the net and then, we started to yell in the middle of the river, I was so happy, but my father was happier because his son caught the trophy of the day. The biggest fish of my life, with this gorgeous lure.
