A few years back I was fishing Wasque Point on MV is how the story goes. Pretty much we were hooking up on 5-8 lb blues on every cast. Some kid next to me couldn't hook up due to his equipment , so he came up short. I gave him an Ava-17 and he proceeded to hook up on the first cast. He was hootin' and hollerin' and I felt good for being the one helped him out. That was, until he tried unhooking the blue and the yellow eyed scapel took exception.
