I can understand, especially if you had 150+yd out on a drift already, in which case they would pull 100yd or so (still alot)
but.
250 or 300yd is hard for me to understand as bass pulling off....
300yd is a LOT of line.
case in point.
we troll 50's for tuna, this year loaded them / 600yd of 80lb braid and ~200yd or 80lb mono topshot. 200 yards is a lot of line...

case in point
two Big-eye tuna on the troll @ 7-8kt this season, one in the 180-190 range, one mid-200's. they took A LOT of line, especially as we were clearing the other lines, but neither took us into the braid.

whats my point.
either you hooked the next 60 or 70, or a spunky bass of smaller size;
or it was something else....

who knows, right?
