San Marcos River today - 10/31/11 02:14 AM
Great trip, caught a lot of fish.
I hooked a fish today that pulled me in my kayak upstream turning me twice while diving under the kayak. I fought this fish for a good five minutes trying to keep it out of the trees until it happened and I had to pull free. I had 65lb braid on and could not turn the fish.
After coming loose I inspected my hook and it had a scale larger than a quarter on it so I figured that I must have hooked a huge alligator gar. What a rush.
