duct 8-13 - got SMOKED !

[gletemfeelsteelgary]

Heartbreak !

Tangled with what I’ve been seeking so much lately last night…

Don’t even want to go into all the details but this striper smoked me HARDCORE !

15 lb test seaguar….stripped at an alarming rate…..off in the raging current, tried to steer out….



POP !

Had to be at minimum 15-20 lbs probably more but who’s to say for sure, clearly one of the biggest stripers I’ve ever tangled with..


DAYAM!

20 lb test coming up next……… DAYAM !

I was thinking and talking to the fish in my head and said:
“come on….I challenge !
you WON’T win !

....that sucka took my challenge and broke my line like thread…

Clearly one of those days where the fish was destined to win and he took my lure as a souvenier ! (DAYAM !)

Clearly just another fish story now but I’ll be back….and I’LL HAVE MY TURN !

I love this stuff !

Good effort, you've been putting in the time your about due. At least you know he's in there. Keep it up.

It's always the big one that get's away.

Man that sucks but is awesome at the same time. Having a fish like that even for a moment is a thrill, but a heartbreak when it's gone. Hang in there Gman, you'll get 'um.
