Been there done that.
It really sinks in when you loose that big one.

I fought something huge in Gonzaga fishing w Sven last year for 30 mins and ended up straightening the hook right before I got it to color.

I learned cheap hooks and thumbing the spool don't mix...

Damn, that sucks. Premium hooks can be pricy but if they avoid heart breaks they're more than worth it. Mike
