I like to think it was a 500 lb. Jewfish, but it was probably just a
sub.


ROTFL!!

One of my Dad's friends had one of the funniest WWII stories about
hooking a sub I ever heard.

The short of it he thought it was a fish and wouldn't let the rod go -
pulled him right off the stern of a DE.

Better than the sub hooking a net from a net boat. That happened off SF
some years ago.
