There is a moment in fishing that does not always happen. This moment only occurs when a fish is at least decent. Somewhere between the take and the fight there is a moment when the angler comes to realize the predator on the other end is a worthy opponent and landing this fish at this moment is far from guaranteed. This is the moment when fishing an 8 foot rod a 12 lb Albie makes it's first run. The same moment can occur right after a live pogie has been taken wit no warning and in one hit way out at the end of 450 feet of wire line. This is the moment when the smile is put on hold and replaced with concentration. The momet when average hope is replaced by is it my turn hope. We all know the moment and that moment is what I cherish.
