Hey again Pete! I still have those old strikes of 50+ fish in my mind, but a fish this size appearing out of nowhere some 3-6 feet to the boat and grabbing the lure will remain engraved in my memory forever. This is when one's memory appears to get into automatic slow motion mode... Tight lines! Pat

Yep! Caught it on the cast. It grabbed the bait some 3-6 feet from the boat. And best of all, it is back into the water! Tight lines! Pat

Hey Pete! I'm the sot who got the behemoth that missed your bait... A good reason to hate me, especially when the guy wearing a dress wakes you up when you have a terrible cold to tell you all about it. Anyway... For the pics, I certainly did not leave the smiles on shore! Pat
