Yeah, I didn't see that the first two times I watched the video. It looked like you were using a gold Catala, or the likes for the greenling/lingcod. The rod went to the deck after the dual gaff job, eventually working it's way to the side of your 'yak, then overboard. Did you get it back? That was a sweet outfit, and a very lucky one to that point of the game.

Even in the photo shots someone took of you at the end of the video, 2 rods are upright in your rod holders, but I didn't see the rod with the gold reel that caught the ling. For your sake, I do hope it was lying on the deck, hidden during the photo shoot. If the hook was in the ling and the line still attached I'm sure you just pulled it back up out of the water, I just can't see it anywhere in the photo.
