THE UNUSUAL BFT STRIKE - VID

[WAHOONBOX]

HE IS A REEL ANIMAL......A PREHISTORIC SURVIVOR THAT CAN BREAK A MAN DOWN AND TURN HIM INTO A NOODLE.

HE IS A FEEDING MACHINE THAT WILL TURNON WITH SCREAMING 400 YDS RUNS IN A MERE NANA SECOND.....AND THEN TURN HIMSELF OFF IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE

A FEW YEARS AGO I HAD A FIXED MOUNTED CAMERA AIMED AT THE PLANER BAIT WHILE PARTICIPATING IN THE TAG-A-GIANT PROGRAM ON THE OLD "RUN-OFF" WITH BRIAN

NOTE THAT THE PLANER IS ATTACHED TO A HANDLINE/OLD SALTY PLANER WHICH YOU WILL SEE BEING TRIPPED (PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTED VIEW)


WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO THE VIEWER IN THE VIDEO IS: ....OBSERVE THE LACK OF LINE SCREAMING OFF AFTER THE INITIAL STRIKE. ...LISTEN TO THE COMMENTS MADE OF "UNCERTAINTY" AS TO WHETHER IT IS A GIANT OR NOT BECAUSE OF NO LINE LEAVING THE REEL

WELL IT WAS A GIANT .....BUT ONCE HE ATTACKED THE BAIT....HE ACTUALLY SWAM TOWARDS THE BOAT....THEREFORE NO LINE WAS SCREAMING OFF THE 130..........ONE MUST TAKE UP THE SLACK ON STRIKE IF THIS HAPPENS!

TREAT ALL STRIKES LIKE IT IT THE FATDADDY HIMSELF!!!..........

Box that is exaclty what happened to us on Saturday. We all stood looking at each other "was that a bite? guess so, well I guess we better get these old saltys up" did not know what we had till the fish was 20 yards from the boat then he turned it on.

From what I am hearing the Gulfstream aka. Old Run-off has gotten several bites already this year.

Same thing happened to me on my first ever bluefin trip. We had four bit in only a couple hours and finally landed one, but the second or third bite, huge boil and no line coming off the reel. Next thing we know fish busted us off underneath the boat in just a matter of seconds. Thats a fast critter!
