Looks like you were trying a yoyo (surface?) but the live one got bit. Flyline or did you drop it down?

Yeah, I love that sound! Never gets old... And yes, I had that heavy rod rigged with a 4oz Tady, but it really should've been a surface iron in that moment.
Was putting it away and reeling in my flyline Spanish to swap it for a fresh one when it got bit. Opened up the drag a little to let it take it all the way, then tightened it up again to let the circle hook work it's magic
