Sick to my stomach
This was a couple hours ago and I still feel sick. I guess that'll keep me out there trying to get another! The anchor is going in the trash...stake out pole only from now on! |

I guess it's equal parts excitement and disappointment.

I have lost a few fish that I can still see swimming off, I try not to think about them and just keep casting. The simple fact is that big trout know how to shake a hook. Loosing fish is part of fishing, its what keeps me mad at the slimy bastards. Still sucks, been there and I feel for you.

Look on the brightside...if you are a REAL fisherman...the size of that fish, in the stories you will tell, will eventually be much greater than if you boated it and weighed it.
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? |

Lost a PB last year and was sick about it but put it aside since it flopped out the net on my son. Didn't want to make him feel bad. But, exactly 7 days later I landed one close to the same size. It will come around.
