I heard Pat had to be shamed into launching :lol: I turned out to be a nice morning, except that
stupid circle hook!
Nothing but heartbreak and a cheap cigar :P
As slow as it was, I decided to fish the sand on the way in. Got bit on the bottom and let it eat it for a long time. Thinking about the circle hook, I let the rod load and then just wound hard. Fish took off across the bottom on a nice run and then started to come up like a sack a taters. One toss of it's head and spit the hook. Only other excitement for me was the one then 2 clickers going off, sneaky sealion came out of nowhere to rob me.
