He doesnt post here but my friend Mike is seriously owned by big fish. We're out at the southwest ledge, I pick up a fish 35-37 lbs, my buddy gio picks up a nice fish as well. Mike finally hooks up.
He's telling up guys, guys, guys this one is big. We're thinking yea ok Mike. We try and keep him calm, 20 minutes he's got it at the boat, we're ignoring mike and fishing the whole time. He's I got it at the boat! I tell him ok I'm gonna grab the net.
I grab the net and start walking over to him, he grabs the 20 lb leader holding the high 40 easy 50 lb fish. And proceeds to try and jerk left this beast out of the water with one hand with his rod in his other hand. This was all in one split second, what I remember the most is me screaming to him NOooooooo. You know that NOOOOooooooo when everything slows down like slow motion. Then silence....for a good 5 minutes. Its pitch black out no other boats out then i hear the loudest I'm a F8cking IDIOT! ever. Priceless. He drops some of the biggest fish, consistently, and always at his feet.
