      I had a few tears in my eye when that fucking submarine bit through my leader. I was not surprised though, I have never felt anything like it, and I was basically completely powerless to do much at all. I am sure I was muttering. "I will never land this fish, I will never land this fish", but maybe I was just saying it to myself, as it peeled line off the reel in the semi dark.....

          I will never be able to put into words what I saw. Giles was retrieving his line when something took the bait...in an instant I saw him go from standing to almost on his knees holding on with everything he had. Not one of us in that boat could have landed what he had hooked on to...

          The immense power of what ever it was, was truly humbling...

          To date I joke with Giles that he accidentally hooked a submarine...he may have 🙂

          We're going back to settle a score...or at least to have fun trying.
