Damn thought I had a nice striper the way this leopard shark peeled string off my reel. No striper no skunk!

I caught this little beauty on Monday. I was super thankful to catch. The water has been a little bit contaminated or something lately, but it doesn't seem to affect the sharks when I've seen this dead seals and dead dolphins. It affects seals and dolphins. Have a great day tight lines
