fishing stories
Went fishing at the wharf yesterday at 10am using squid and pilchards.
At bout 11.30am my reel spooled like crazy and I hooked onto something that literally felt like a steamtrain on the end of my line.I tuned the drag to allow for the fish to run , but it just kept pulling like crazy and I could feel in the weight and sheer power of the fish I had no chance of reeling it in.Then next thing I know bang! Snapped line
Figured it must have been a big shark or a stingray , by this time the adrenallin was turbo boosting through my veins
Next time I'm definately using steel trace , as it sux talking about the one that got away :P
Fishing's like a natural high for me , anyone else got a story?

Re: fishing stories
I love fishing. Best fish I ever caught was a big *** lake trout on a canoe trip in algonquin park. It was just me and my friend in the canoe paddling around the island we were camping on. I hooked it and set the drag and the thing pulled out until I had maybe 5 feet of line left and then it calmed down and I started to reel it in. My friend paddled for an hour and a half as I fought the thing. I usually catch and release, but we hadn't had any meat in two days. It was the best fish I've ever had. We broiled it in a pan with lemonade powder mix on top of it. DELICIOUS. try it some time.

also the thing where u salt and season the ---- out of tuna and put it in a jar and leave it for a couple weeks and it cooks it... brining i think its called? idk
smoked is where its at..
