Awesome man. At least you saw what it was. For me it would be way worse hooking that up and never seeing it. And you definitely had the right gear. With my luck it would have bit my 10-20lb graftech and a lexa 400.

WOW!!!

Did you know all you had to do was touch the leader, and it would of counted as a hook and release?

Heart break for sure, that is if you were going to kill it and eat it.

Awesome story!!! No one can take that away from you!

Thanks for sharing.
