Here's a battle with a ling from the same day as Spot's video.  I couldn't believe the thing held on!  Ended up being 15 lbs. and I caught his twin a little earlier. 
You may want to turn the volume down if the kiddos are in the room - I got a little excited.  ;D

Happy Friday!

Who says you need hooks to catch lings? That's hilarious.

Nice fish!
My wife thinks fishing is merely guys wandering around like idiots swinging sticks in the air. Many of my trips prove how smart she really is.

That's awesome Jeff!  I can't believe you got that thing in the net.  He just didn't know when to give up.

Fixed the spelling.  Thanks again, Dino.

And that's exactly what it felt like I was pulling against when I was trying to pull the net back against the boat.  Spot and I were commenting on how tiring it is netting these things and that's probably why.
