Chris tried to hand the rod to me and I said no way. All this activity happen behind my back and all I saw was Steve going over board head first. I thought he had caught a whopper which I wanted no part of. Lou Grant The one thing that Steve left out was before he reboarded the boat he handed his rod w/fish on the line to Chris.

Even I, the infamous Navarre Fisherman, would have let it go to the bottom. I have seen too many big 'jaws' out there around fishing spots. Of course I would have dragged a big treble hook along the bottom until I got my rod and reel back... Good story, Brian Lowman Uh Steve, just how expensive was that rod and reel? Even I, the infamous Navarre Fisherman, would have let it go to the bottom. I have seen too many big ‘jaws’ out there around fishing spots.

Of course I would have dragged a big treble hook along the bottom until I got my rod and reel back…

Good story,

For me, I dropped when I got a hook in a finger, cleared the hook and dove. The delay was too long (half a second?) and the rod out of reach. Congrats on grabbing yours!
