It was last year ( haven't had any good fish this year yet ) , and I was pluggin' with another guy.....fishing was slow so, I was chewing the fat as I fished, I wasn't looking at my popper, when all of a sudden I hear this huge splash...I look and my popper is gone, make a crank on the reel, set the hook, and I'm on with the heaviest fish I have ever had on.....after a min or two..the fish comes to the top and all I could see was the dorsal and the top of her tail....had to be 36-40" apart...( may not be big compared to some of the ones you guys catch, but this was big for me ) fish goes back down, comes back to the top..couple of head shakes, and spits my popper back at me. Fish was probably 10 feet from me at the time....haven't had another fish like that since....still think of her from time to time....going to go cry at my desk now....thanks alot guys, now I feel sick again.
PS....MikeP...That's an insane story.
