That sucks big time.
LJ can be a rough neighborhood. Kelp, lobster trap lines in season, crowds, anchor lines, and loads of savvy seas lions.
When I hook up its like I hear a little clock ticking away. The longer the fight goes on the lower my chances are of winning. I'm cool with the fish getting away. But losing a fish to a dog really chaps me. Like you said, take your gaff shot and get em in the boat.
There's plenty of next times. Mike
