Wow, that's a tough day. Interesting about the smallie. We caught one when I was with my dad on koke gear as well. The rod was set at 35 ft. We had swung close to a cliff edge and as we were going back out to open water I thought I saw the rod twitch, but then nothing. About 5 min later the rod was just acting funny so I told my dad to reel it in. Yep a tiny smallmouth.
