The Agony of Defeat

I will never be as famous as Vinko Bogataj for his wipeout featured on ABC’s Wide World of Sports, but my disappointments and failures leave me just as devastated.

Anyone who has ever fished knows that while we like to talk about our success, the chatter at the dock is always about “the one that got away.”

With today’s advanced technology, there are ways to actually see “that one” before it bites, and then relive it over and over and over again.

This one hit hard, came flying up from 20 plus feet deep and when it hit the surface, just popped off.

She was big. I’m not sure how big.

See for yourself.

What is your most memorable big fish that you lost?
