Aussie Man Refuses To Let Fish Take His Favorite Pole

Impressive video out of Australia where a man was fishing with his girlfriend and his favorite pole got away from her because he forgot to adjust the drag. Nice save mate. Eat your heart out Hasselhoff:

“Upon arriving at the reef the weather was amazing and I set up my favorite outfit a 14k Shimano Stella, Missing At Sea Pe8 casting rod and 150 death wobble.

I had just put a cast straight onto a stirred up school of fusiliers and gave the rod to my partner Bianca when a GT inhaled the stick bait. I had the drag set as I normally would for myself and this proved a lot too much for my girl!

I managed to retrieve the rod and get back into the boat, got the rod back in my hands and had a visual of the fish when the hooks let go.”
