The One That Got Away.

[Adamfishes]

i have just recently started salt water fishing (last summer) and have never got a keeper, although I do have a good story. I was fishing on Plum Island using sand eels and i was sitting on the beach when all of a sudden slam my rod bends in half and loks like it is about to break and i start reeling and realize the drag is on all the way and its way to tight. So the hook i assume riped right thru the lip. I really thought the rod would break. I still have dreams about how big that thing must have been. O well hopefully this season i will get a keepah!
