Numby...the term, when related to fishing is...."Better to have hooked up and lost, than never to have hooked up at all!". Good post SD....sorry for your loss!

Man, I know that feeling. An arm wrenching battle hoping everything holds together only to find out you've spent the last ten minutes trying to haul in a gorilla bluefish sideways through the current. You can't help but laugh though.

Must be the night of lost fish, I had mine at my feet when the hook pulled out at least I got to see the monster

I hate the feeling right in the pit of my belly
