Was out on Monday and started off fishing south bowen.. Did a few passes without any hits and decide to try something that I haven't done before. Instead of picking up lines and heading over to the hump, I left lines in the water and trolled south from RC to the north east corner of the hump. About halfway to the hump in approx 700feet of water the portside rod starts bouncing. Not a huge hit but there was a fish on. Grabbed the rod and pulled the line off the release clip..... Felt a few small tugs and I was almost certain it was an undersized and so I decided to give the rod to the wife to let her have some fun reeling it in. The line was set at 170 on the downrigger. As she got about 50% of the line reeled, the reel starts peeling line. I look over and see that the rod is bent over and the wife looks terrified and confused. 1st thought that went through my head was that my rod and reel was going to end up at the bottom of the sea. Line peeled for what seemed like 20 Secs or so... She starts yelling at me to take the rod from her as she wants nothing to do with the experience. I grabbed the rod and eventually get the fish to the surface... Looked like a good 15-18 pounder.. I shout to the wife to get me my gaff so that I can invert the hook boat side for a quick release. before I can finish telling her to get the gaff the fish does a nose dive and takes another run straight down and then all of a sudden decides to head back to the surface at which point my line goes slack and fish is off... What a great looking and healthy fish... Definately got the heart rate going.. Double glow flasher on chartreuse with black speckald hoochie.
