    Can't answer that, but maybe you foul hooked something (eel or trout)? I've done that a few times and once with a salmon on the Clutha. That thing felt like.nothing else as it was hooked behind the dorsal fin and it could swim around without any restrictions like a normal.mouth hooked fish, and took me on a merry dance downstream before I lost it.
