Haha, that's what Joe and I were trying for. He checked his bait and was dead, but he threw it back down. Then I told him I'd give him a fresh bait, and as soon and he stayed reeling up, the thing took off. We both suspected bat ray immediately. Then later, I had a lively sardine on, but went to check it after an hour of nada, and same thing, it got heavy and took off. Then I hooked another at the mouth of the jetty coming in. No halibut that day, but got some sleigh rides, that's for sure. Gonna use a mack next time, hopefully they're too lively for rays
