old fart hooked up to one of them in the boat a couple of years ago, the ruddy thing towed us backwards, yelled out, are we going backwards, yes ^%$$#. Brought it up and old fart cut the hook out and one mighty splash it was gone. Glad he got it on the winch, he was huffin' and puffing with a bit of swearing in between as he called it a ray.
Just used a dead herring on size 8 circle hook, the thing draged the boat around only a 4.5 runabout to big to pull in pulled him up took the hook off and let him go
