Ahh yes the joys of the salt. The surprises too.
I went on a fishing trip last year. It was on one of the sporties. We were fishing for Kelp Bass with 12lb test. I got my bait picked off by a nice Thresher Shark.
I didn't see color on it until it almost had me spooled. It jumped out of the water and was estimated around 7feet long. I only got to play it for about 10 minutes before it lashed my line with its long tail. Zinggggggg Powwwww. That was all she wrote.
I already have permission to land sharks from my local landing. I always insist that the rest of the customers go on the opposite side of the boat for safetys sake.[cool]
