Years ago I was fishing the mouth f the Deshka with a friend of mine. He cast out his bait and the reel was a monster birdsnest.
As he was working on fixing the reel, a king picked up the bait and started to move off with it. I grabbed the line and gently started pulling it in, never putting too much pressure on it. When I was able to steer the fish up close to the boat and put a couple wraps around the fish club and then held on as my friend netted the fish.
We sat back and laughed at the goat rope and the fact we were able to pull it off.
