I lost one as well. I was jigging and hoping for a spanish mackerel but a sailfish took it. I was 'striped' immediately. At first, I thought I have a good chance for a mack as the fish swam in whenever I had the line tightened on it. Just about 10s into the battle, my rod was pointing to the right at the aft of the boat, a sailfish took the air on my left!!! It was so close that you could almost touch it... the fish took off after the jump and my spool was bare. The spool was burning hot while I was palming it... "Tuk..." The leader burst... More than 120yards of line out tangling in the water... at least I got the line still. Adrenaline got me unexpectedly..... *breathing hard* plus almost burnt fingers...
