That must have been a bluefish or two that did that when you were taking out the hook?

ill second that

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

The first one should've been a good indicator to loosen the drag.

yep do that for those kind of places

the fish will just mash your plug into the rocks and straighten hooks

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

i was standing right next to him. its amazing what a moon tide, braid, 13 foot pole, and some bubble weed can do to 4x vmc's.

all kidding aside........there was some piggies swimming around that night. one twinkie snapped my 1081m. really put a damper on my evening.

We got this on a VMC 6X 3/0 treble hook !
I'm not sure a 4X would not have straightened out!
