Some moron came screaming in too close (July 4th - what a suprise)
and picked up a line I had out. This guy was bookin, too. As line smoked off the reel, I one handed into my pocket, grabbed the swiss army knife, gave it an awkward open, and saved what I could.

Caught two lobsters on eels - back to back one morning along the canal ... both keepers ...

One night fishing along a beach in October I think it was, as the moon was coming up - four days past the full ... the entire beach front erupted in cayote howling, not at once ... but rather in consecutive order, at least a dozen of them ... started to the left of us and finished to the right of us pretty far awa ... it was a bit weird, as we did not hear any or see any before or after.

Also got my first fish in the canal this season, first time I fished there - nothing to brag about, but at least I didn't get skunked.

Let's see:
I caught 8 lobsters this year, all very very small. Three in one day.
I had a guy in a boat charge the beach looking for a fight...he turned areound when 8 of us walked down to the shore to say hi.
I had something spool me while fishing with tin...can't say what it was.
I saw a guy fishing next to me with dinky tackle bring a huuuuge blackfish to the surface, snapped his line, he jumped in and heaved the fish at me (miraculously I caught it).
There's lots more!
Merry Xmas,
Rick

1) I was able to finally land a fish I caught on an Eel
2) I fell down a steep bluff and fractured my ankle
