Thanks guys! Actually, here is the complete story:
Took the kids out fishing with myself and my dad. My dad hooked a fish and gave the rod to my son for him to reel it in. At the same time, I had a bump. I set the hook, then kneeled down to let my little girl help me reel it. She was cranking away when I really felt the weight of the fish that we had hooked. I saw it come up by the boat and nearly lost it. We finally got the hawg in the boat, all thanks to my little girls cranking power!
