Mark,
Similar situation happened to me last year. Instead of letting the braid do the work, tried to put too much tension on the fish and snapped midway down the leader. Thank you for the reminder. Sorry you lost the fish man, you are due for a nice one. Tight lines! Anthony |

Thanks Anthony. I'm still trying for a nice one like you got. The water was a lot cleaner than the last two times last week. There is still too much bait and red crabs out there, making it harder for the big ones to get interested in what we are showing them, but it has been getting better. The water is over 65 and it just seems weird that the action is still sparse. Got to keep trying, every trip someone get some. It still feels like it's just being in the right place at the right time.

I agree, Beto. The worst is not the knot and leader. They were working good. It was being inpatient and still pulling so hard when I knew that the fish had to be up against the remaining kelp stringers that had not been cut yet and thought, I could pull it out of the salad bowl. That was dumb.
