re: The one that got away

About 15 years ago, I was around 13 years old. My only tuna fishing trip ever out of Venice. Caught 5 or 6 blacks on the lumps untill we finally hooked a big Yellow. My brother and I took turns fighting it for about 45 minutes when the captain says damn that's the rod I didn't tie the good knot on. Not 5 minutes later the fish came off and the line was curly at the end like the knot slipped.
