In the movie ROCKY 3 Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" THIS WILL BE OUR BATTLE SONG FOR 2011 "Risen up back on the street !! Did my time took my chances!! Went the distance ,now I'm back on my feet ,just a man and his will to survive !!So many times it happens too fast !! !!You trade your passion for glory!! !!Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past,you must fight just to keep them alive !! Had to light a fire on some hard core club members butts recently after seeing what Team Rebel has been doing on the beach recently.With the full moon I knew it was time to get moving or lose a wonderful oppurtunity.I told my boys look around you see the moon phase, the wind is moderate ,the surf is light right now this is a window we need to jump on right now !!!!We must hit the beach now-- FULL MOON BABY!!!!Gotta do it now before old man winter moves in on us hard.We hit right firing on all pistons and had success.Here is the quick report. One big hammer caught and one beast lost that took me down to the braid backing.Charged at first so it was a big hammer I'm almost 100% sure. Shannon gets hooked up as I get to the beach the shark's taking good drag The shark is quickly measured and released by Shannon and I .Thanks to new Florida sharker salvashark501 (dave)and the bystanders that helped with the tail rope and quick picture taking. Next it's me I"M hooked up with a giant that gets on a roll taking line without letting up a bit .For bait I have a the head of a 40 lb AJ that I yakked out 250 yards BIG FISH TAKING BIG LINE,,,,,,we are exuberant oh oh ,,,we're down to the backing- get a second reel is made ready just in case we need to tie in . after 5 minutes the drag is getting hot the pressure is upped and shortly thereafter the hook straightens back to double and triple strength Mustads oh and Tuna hooks at that Was it too much pressure too fast?Was the shark lip hooked?Was I to tight on the fish?All questions that remain and will ponly serve to make me a better shark fisherman. Later in the night we are met by Ray(clack ,clack ,clack)his brother Joe and Chris (snookhunter) we sit around and contemplate the beast that nearly straightened my hook and the power needed to that and the size of the monster that swims just beyond the braekers in front of our camp,There will be a next time and we are in a frenzy to make it happen enlivened by the great night of shark fishing that has put the shark fishing fire back in our veins. Later on

which Mustads are double or triple strength? I could not find any specs that said double or triple, may have missed it though.
