Fished on the paramount Friday. Bottom fishing was slow. I had 2 porgy,2 seabass, 3 ling, and 1 flounder. In the afternoon we were on our third mudhole drop when a few guys next to me started saying they were seeing fish under the boat. I was just dropping my bottom rig down at the right time when line started peeling off. I locked the reel and it started screaming toward the bow. Worked My way to the bow and realized it ran under one of the 2 anchor lines. I had to fight it with the rod tip down toward the water to keep My line of the anchor line. I honestly didn't think I was going to land it at this point, thought for sure it would wrap in the anchor lines,but luck was with Me. It hit a clam/gulp combo
