I hooked one of those soup fins at LJ mid column using the same technique. He started peeling the clicker, then he did a 180 and ran straight to the kayak. I knew right then and there when line went slack it was no yellow. I could barely keep up while grinding on the handle. He made a few runs before finally chewing me off. Thanks for sharing you post. Picture came out well. By the way, seabass will not run like that shark. Unless he is 90 lb? They do have very stout broom tails, good for short powerful bursts to catch prey. Its actually kinda astonishing how hard the tail is. I was trying to saw or cut one off so I could fit fish in cooler. It didn't happen.
