the permit were up to 29 pounds(bite me) and 25 (mine)
bite me had a ten or twelve foot hammerhead chase his permit about two hundred yards...spinning gear- SCREAMING drag and the powdercoat of the braid line piling up on the roller...awesome...forty minute fight...in my opinion, the permit and jacks were more fun than the tarpon. we even have our picture on his website with the permit...GREAT guide...highly recommend!!!
