Losing a fish you know was big is bittersweet........ yes it sucks when this happens but at the same time you tangled with a monster that reached his size because he did something right..... Whenever you do land these giants it's truly a magical moment and one should feel blessed they were able to have such an experience. Fishing though is more than just catching fish, fishing is the way some of us are able to truly connect with nature. I know many of you would agree.
