whale on
 
we hooked up on one the other day. there was a small whale hanging around, pilot/minke? it felt like i hooked a haddock as soon as my jig hit the bottom. a few seconds later the reel starts singing, lost alot of braid quick. luckily - we snagged the line later and got back the braid and the rig. i wonder if he was going after the haddock or just ran over the line. so who else has had this happen over the years? first time for me
