The fish was nice and round, once I cut the throat, much of the gut area collapsed due to the air being forced out. I never think of the cups, mounts or anything else and end up with the fillet knife in hand on way home.
I would have to say a little of both, the fish did manage to peel off line on a pretty good drag with the rod doubled right over. Sometimes though, the smalller fish seem to outfight the larger ones.
Nice fish Dave, good for you, glad you had some charlie activity, I had heard you were out there the day after us. We had been hittin them pretty good north till the last few days. Give us a call when you go again!!! maybe we can team up!!!
