Funny story from my Alaska trip last year -- after our first afternoon of bottomfishing in 300', one of our gang remarks that he pretty much hated it, and could we please just fish salmon all the next day.

His plan is to just not pay attention to what he is doing and try his darndest to keep the halibut off his rig. Well sure enough, his rod is the first to start banging, and after some good-natured kidding, he finally begins to reel up his halibut. Here it comes, it's a ... it's a ... it's a great big dogfish
