http://www.break.com/index/thatsafish.html I think we saw that footage before, but it's still as hilarious as when it was fresh. My theory: they were getting something (small) close enough to net when whatever it was got bagged by one big effing fish with a big effing spike growing out of its face (sword fish, I presume - but I've never seen a live one). Meanwhile, Our Hero had some kind of rig that attached his reel to his chair. I was thinking the reel was hooked to the back of the seat, because when the poor bastid gets launched it sure looks like the seat-back went over the rail with him. No way was he merely holding onto the rod - more like the gear was holding onto him... /daytripper (Would've loved to see the expression on his face)
