A Surreal experience
[SIZE=3]Started off this morning with a stiff wind, light rain and a moderate heavy chop. Headed towards SW and found the cause of the wind, so we skirted the storm, the further south we went the better the water looked and the lake was calming down, by the time we reached LSU it was flat calm, we started picking up some trout on top water right off the bat, as daylight started breaking through the clouds, the TP stopped. I picked up a grub and started catching mixed sand / specks it was on until the ultimate strike, never seen them coming… out of nowhere a biga$$ swirl and it was on… set hook to find a Porpoise on the other end of my line, never in my wildest dreams would I have imagine hooking a Porpoise… I’m here to tell you it was pissed off, that thing started jumping and cutting flips and twisting …..it looked like we were at Sea World , then he bolted, peeling off a 150yds of braid in a matter of a few seconds, by this time he had 3 buddies joined in and they were all cutting up, you could see the trail of braid behind him, it was a surreal experience to stay the least. All in all it wasn’t a bad day we were back at the landing by 11:00 with 22 specks, threw back at least 40 sandies.[/SIZE]
