once i was drift fishing bait and i must have jerked a half dozen times on what i swore to god was a fish, that bugger would rail me and i would come out my hip boots setting the hook, finally after an hour playing with this ghost biter i got the hook in em, and low and behold when i got em in the rocks he had his mouth wired shut with a pixie spoon and i actually hooked him in the beek..
