very good fighter....
that fish was caught 2 years ago on memorial day morning....
woke up at 6 and thought i was too late for prime time cause the sun was already peeking out....decided to go any way....

made about 6 casts on the south side of an undisclosed structure...nothin...walked to the north side....first cast bang....he started for the structure and fortunately by mistake my drag was set too tight...he turned...he decided to go north and started ripping line out after i losend it slightly...i started running up the beach to make sure that there wasnt to much tension on the line...and he was ripping line out like crazy so i kept running, running, running....when i finally got him in i was about a quarter mile away from where i hooked up....


the meat is pure white if you slit there throats before they die if not its slightly darker...taste just like grouper....the only thing finer is redfish or river flounder (in my opinion)...snook getter
