C'mon Steve, let's see the goods!

Lost our chance for a big hawg for this season's last hurrah, hooked on a whole herring. The rod pumped 3 times and then slammed down with line peeling at a decidedly vertical angle. My brother fought the thing for a few minutes... it just stayed deep... good sign of a big fish... yee ha! Then hopes were dashed as the line wet slack on a head shake.... reeled up to find both hooks missing on the 40# Maxima UG leader. Those big ones sometimes come armed with some serious choppers. Lots of undersized kings out there in 200' of water.

Boated a 5-man limit with only one small 28" keeper king on Sunday. Pic to follow.
