Fishing may very well be the sport that engenders the most tall tales. You know "The One That Got Away" plot: storytelling fisherman hooks a real monster AND battles valiantly to reel it in AND it is the biggest fish ever caught in Everytown Lake BUT, alas... it breaks the line and gets away. This was one of those tales. Until the boat was up on the trailer and the dead-eyed truth was staring back for all to see.
