Garry and I were doing some city fishin at the pier during the salmon run. Sometimes we go down there when we don't have a lot of time. It is easier than staying home with our wives looking for imaginary dust bunnies living under the couch or something like that. Well next to us was an old couple. The lady was old ... I mean waiting for the boys to come back from France old. Cute couple. She had tossed her line out in the middle of the channel with a big bobber on it bait fishing.   

A bit later I see my buddie Jim crusin by in his 52 ft crew boat. A minute later the ladies line starts screaming (she had hooked the boat) She grabs her pole and the line is screaming off her reel. She starts playing it and playing it and playing it... next .. bam .. the line breaks off.

She turns to us and says ... that was some big fish ... he had to be huge!   Garry without missing a beat says that fish was exactly 52ft long!
