Kinda like the 195#(at least!!!) Cobia that I had to cut the leader on because the seas during the advancing hurricane we were fishing in were getting to 35ft (or better) and my girlfriend, at the time,...Morgan Fairchild...yeah that's it....was getting seasick.
See how this will play to your advantage? |
That is exactly right, I remember in my younger days a friend of mine lost a nice little Black tip Shark I had hooked up with when he tried to land it for me. It would have been my first Black Tip Shark. It was probably around 3 ft, by the end of the day it was a 14FT!!! Black TIP and if not for HIM, I could show everyone!! LMOA!!
