I remember catching a 4 foot shark off the rocks on the west coast of NZ and thinking to myself how am I gonna release it in the pounding surf so I just cut the line. I was targeting bream for dinner
Another time something grabbed my bait and like a freight train kept going in a straight line, my 40 lb test had no chance and I doubt it even realized it was hooked.
Never know what you will get other there, its awesome.
