No I dont keep the reel moving then, but I have only had one fish dump the reel and that was a tail hooked big eye thresher. Most of the other fish come and dont put up much fight till they get to the surface.

In High School, I went out with two girls. The first was like the girl next door, if you lived next door to a whore house.

My doctor said I shouldn't work out until I'm in better shape. I said "Ok, dont send me a bill until I pay you".
