Worth watching, thanks for putting it up. Makes me think of a take I got this year with reel fully tightened up and still stripped line broke off at the 120lb wire. Taught it was a big conger that have been got there before but now I dint know. Also a deep water mark. :shock: .

many 6 gills have been caught from the shore at Elliot bay, Seattle by anglers,

Actually once the Seattle aquarium found out about it, they got a ban imposed on angling
and built a permanent research station on the seafloor beneath the aquarium’s exhibit spaces,

it was a nice earner, but then the 6 gills seemed to stop coming to the shore
