i know what youre talking about eben, i've been thinking about THE fish that got away last year also. wish i could say my hooks went on me, but i hooked into a monster, you know where, that left me sleepless for a few nights after. i was throwing a gibbs casting swimmer when i felt a huge hit, set the hook and all i felt was tension. thought i snagged the bottom, but theres nothing on the bottom over there. the thing started shaking its head and before i had time to adjust the drag it was over. pure stupidity on my part not checking the drag before hand, been beating myself up over it ever since.
