To get my nerve up I began at one side of the boulder field.
Water was churned up on the incoming and wind almost in my face made impossible to see with the head lamp for footing....
Once comfortable I came in and moved over to where I wanted to fish. Had a bear of a time getting there, these old knees are at thier end... Gets my feet planted and let's one go, ( yo zori that looks like the jumpin mino? ) two cranks and bamb! Fish heads straight out head shaking like crazy, rod tip up, cranking like crazy, thought I had him, not, he heads off to my left towards some boulders still showing, I tell you, full drag, hand on spool, rod bent to a half moon and I couldn't stop him..... It happen too quick to say a Hail Mary , (should have:-)) because not sure if a rock or equip failure but that monster got away... :-(
Don't mind loosing this one but just wish the fight lasted longer,,, this was a big fish for sure...

Stay tuned,,, I've got to go buy more amo and give it another shot. I think that's plug # 4 for this spot!
