I was fishing the Scusset Beach Jetty on an incoming, it was around 3am....I had caught a couple of decent fish that night nothing really big though...I never saw the hit, I was bullchitting with another angler when I heard the alarm<drag> go off, it made one intial run-....then like the energizer....."it just kept going and going and going".... didn't hear a boat,,,but dang, it sure seemed like one. I cupped the spool a couple of times but the fear of busting off kept me from really putting the brakes on. It took me right down to the knot, then SNAP. The other guy that was fishing there just looked at me for a few seconds,,,...then whispered,,,..."
what the hell was that?" .....
With the ingredients being the Canal, Late Summer, and Chunking......you just never know what you might get or not get
Also got spooled on the G.I. causeway jigging up macks....doesn't really count though because I was just bait fishing with a cheap set-up with hardly any line on it.....the little tunnys came running through and one decided to take me for a ride.....wahoooooooo,, the braided line left a nice in my finger tooo
