It only happened once at the canal when i was a lot younger using sub par tackle. The bennys special with 30-40 lb mono, shimano reel. Something picked up my chunk that was sinkered tot he bottom, headed west and never looked back. I have no idea what it was but damn. Anotehr time a few years ago i almost got spooled in the canal while drifting eels. The eel got picked up onthe end of a drift, probably 75 yards or so. This one headed east and took a ton of 50 lb PP from my abu with it. Cranked down on the drag then thumbed the spool trying to stop it. Got close to getting spooled, thumbed it till the line broke. Another canal mystery.

Everything is better on the rocks.
