same-same ~~last year for me,,,,,,,,,,,,

had a 36" at HAZAve in July CRUSH an olive/white Danny an hour into first light,
then sound with its tail penetrating the surface at a 90 degree angle. that was AMAZING!!

had a 40"er+ absolutely launch herself at first light,
on a AH Herring spook off the rip at DI in Oct.
the guy in the yak about 40 yds away was as JACKED as i was!!

lost a Cape Ann monstah on a live eel last Sept that ran for about 20 yards, then went airborne and shook (tarpon-like),
then swam straight at me, jumped into a trough between me and a tight ledge (within 5' of my perch) and proceeded to
slap the water with her tail and head(snook-ike), before she snapped a 40# shock like it was a guitar string ~when i touched the leader,,,,,,,,,,,,she still gives me nightmares and COLD SWEATS!!

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
