Default The Figure 8 Cast


Not sure if you read Jerry Kustich's "A Wisp in the Wind"
He describes in one of the chapters about multi rigging, which he doesn't
do very often.
But in this case he landed a lunker on a double rig, and just has he
grabbed the line or fish to unhook
and release, the fish took off and the 2nd rig caught him in the hand.
He describes it as one of the most painful experiences in fishing.
fwiw,
-tom



My hand hurts just thinking abou that! Thrb-throb-throb.
