Re: Surprise Weakfish !!
strip, once had a similar surprise. Early fall, drifting eels out of the fire island inlet, my favorite rip on the south shore. Felt my eel gettin' real nervous.Reel started run,set the hook,thought it was a 30-32" striper. Got him close to the boat and got a quick glimps and knew it was no bass. Got him in the net and on board. 321/2 " and 9.8 lbs. first week I ever got. Next drift I got hit hard,bought a 42" striper on board w/ the same eel I got the weakfish on.
