It was a crazy fight till they seen what it was, then they made me point the rod at it and break it off... So yes it was one of the fights of my life... just didn't last very long... but fun while it was an unknown... My hook up was the first seal/sea lion that we had seen that day... Had to modify how we were fishing after they learned the seals had found us.. Later Jeff
Hey, that was a good trip and a good laugh. But at least I didn't step in the chum bucket that trip!
