I had my shot ....

Well, the seals were relentless to me monday. I hooked up and thought yellowtail, till I saw a seal. Then the fish went crazy. I think the seal ended up chasing it and I was able to gain on it a few times and I figured it may have still been a seal with my fish till the very last run at which point I figured big bonito .... whatever it was it put up a great fight and I lost. Check it out.

I've lost my baits to seals plenty of times, even hooked one by accident but normally my line snaps before anything else happens. Thoughts?


P.S. I look like a fool at the beginning because the damn fish kept changing directions real fast, so it dragged me backwards for a bit, good learning experience and next time I'll back the drag off more right away so I can reposition my rod easier and not risk flipping.
