best part of this fish was it was caught on 5ft long beach boat rod (the cheapo white ones) matched with a 704z that was short on recycled braid with very old 15 - 20lb mono backing.

nice fish.
 

I hooked on to one today, but broke me off. Good job!! They're everywhere..what did it hit?

a Point Jude Po-jee metal, right at the boat, he got to see the fish hit it. I had a quick run on a popper, but it got snapped off in about 5 seconds.

Great catch.

fishsmith, great job, way to stick it out!

sweet nice fish!
