Last night I went out on my pier to get some rods to respool. While there, I decided to cast a few of them to check the line and how far they cast. Picked up my 5th rod with only a cork, weight, and red hook. About 1/2 way back reeling at a decent pace,,you guessed it...About an 8" black hit it. No bait just bare hook. Earlier in the evening, I threw everything in the tackle box to no avail.
