Great story thanks for sharingYour story reminded me of a day I had halibut fishing with Mike Ensley of Happy Hooker Charters in Kodiak, AK several years back. I had a strong bite, but struggled for more than 30 min. to get the fish to the surface. Much to my surprise there were two halis on the line. Thanks to Mike and his brother-in-law we landed both; one was 112 lbs and the other 122 lbs. As it turns out they were chasing an octopus that hit my line as there were pieces of octopus still hanging from the line when I pulled it in. I guess they figured my bait was an easier meal so they each grabbed one.
Took a lot of wine that evening.
