2 Million to one

Is a Million to one, and a million to one equal to 2 million to one? Here is the reason I had to use my backup gaff several weeks ago on that 32# Hali at LJ. Got a couple of reminders on why it is important to support the fish by the gaff in the belly until it is secured and dealt with.

Nice! What a day. So where does a floating gaff disappear to?

1/1,000,000 x 1/1,000,000= 1/1,000,000,000,000 = one in a trillion

Great video and great catch!

You got a lot of luck going on there with the tail hooks. I'm far from an expert, but a couple of suggestions to consider.....I tether my gaff and game clip, and I would not bring that mouth full of teeth into the kayak right by my groin until I am sure it is dead (club to the head).
Well done though. Tail hooks are more of a fight because you can't turn them.
