Hey I considered that one a successful hookup, even if only one fluke on the
hook caught by its tip. That piece of junk we hooked the safety chain to
probably wouldn't have pulled up out of the sand if the hook slipped free. The
sand alongside the wreck looked kind of like we were plowing a garden. And
besides nobody got seasick. :-)
