Channel: Fishing With Faurot

I was out fishing on Lake Hudson in Salina, Ok on 7/20/08 when I hooked into this 40lb 1oz spoonbill. After fighting it for about 10 to 15 minutes on my rod and reel, I was finally able to get it out of the water and into the boat. I feel that I was lucky to get this fish to the surface and into the boat since I only had 8 or 10 lb test line on my reel and when my husband pulled it into the boat my hook came out.
