Far too often anglers make up insane stories about the great lengths they went to when catching a huge fish, but this story is anything but far fetched. Watch as an angler literally breaks his rod in half while reeling in a monster grouper.
Did you see where that rod broke? It snapped off right near the reel and the angler was still able to bring it home. He quickly adjusted his grip on the remaining part of the rod and was able to land the fish.
It just goes to show that even if the situation seems dire be sure to stick with it to the end and you’ll come out on top. Chances are this guy’s friends won’t believe his story, but he’s got the video evidence to back up this tall tale.
