Godspeed Adachi Clouser! You were responsible for eight more to 22” this morning, including some from the instant surface blitz that erupted around the rowboat within seconds of launching, before the loop parted ways. Your backup got a couple more before I called it a morning. I guess ~35 fish is too much to ask for 14lb fluoro; next time I’ll check more closely for damage. Should’ve guessed the knot was gonna be hurting considering what my lipping thumb looks like. You were looking pretty haggard after all those fish but they kept biting so I kept throwing. My plan was to put you on the wall of fame but a burial at sea is appropriate. You died doing what I loved.
