This reminds me of the time Tattoo and I were out on Brenton in the middle of the night and a tiny tin boat kept trolling thru the waves WAY too close to us on shore.
On a close pass Tattoo fired a Habs needle at the boat several times, eventually hooking up. A battle ensued... After a lot of pulling he won the battle when the line of the angler in the boat broke. Attached to a Habs Needlefish was the offenders wire leader eel rig, complete with the eel.
I can just imagine the excitement in the tin boat, they must have thought they were landing a 50.
On a related note, what's up with free divers in kayaks? Absolutely NO fear (although they should certainly be afraid) of setting up shop right where I'm casting....
