I only had 2 bites. 1st bite caught me this fish while I was fishing the rocks by the boat ramp, 2nd bite hit so dang hard it pulled the rod out of my hands. I have horrible wrists already from a jump injury in the service, but I actually had to ice my wrist last night from it. It was not a snag either,,,I felt that dam thing before my wrist gave out. As goofy as this statement is,,,,I loved it,,,it was freaking awesome,,,I want that fish,,,I will be back Thursday,,Walter will be mine!!!!
