4/12/2010 6:12:00 PMI have lost more than landed due to them jumping and thrashing all over. One fish I had one went straight upstream and jumped out of the water and spit the hook right at me in front of all the other anglers there, its hard to control these guys.

4/13/2010 9:43:00 AMDamn Jens, what does that have to do with the fish spitting the hook out. For the record I was using a 12# leader and 1/0 hook. Are you trying to make a point? I didn't say anything about snapping my line. I would say more but I need to control my tongue.

4/13/2010 11:01:00 AMWhat the? Kinghunter, don't be so sensitive. We are all on here trying to learn techniques and share experiences. I just want to know how you personally will lose a fish with your set up meant for catching Halibut or Sharks. Help us out KH. I remember when I lost a bunch of Chums at the Puyallup, I went out and bought a hook sharpener. That helped out tremendously. You still owe me a round of golf.
