Just wondering...
My biggest so far was 30# - and it was a b*tch. Hooked her on a live eel about 2 AM off some rocks that offer damned few places for a graceful landing anyway - and Uncle Zeke had the flat part of the rocks
- so I got her in with one korker wedged in a crevice for leverage and my back against another rock. Thank God I was using the big glass Lami -
There was a
real good swell running and I had to surf her over a short ledge - the fight beat us both up pretty good. Tried to revive her for a while and released her in a tide pool to see her swim a coupla feet and go belly up
- so I jumped in after her.
Swam her around for a while in lazy circles until she recovered and then let her go and watched her swim out of the tide pool and back into the surf -
that was pretty cool - then me and Zeke had to beat feet the hell outta there since the swell was sweeping over the rocks and through the only exit in the tidal pool.
I know DZ has caught and released 50's from the surf - so maybe we'll hear from him -
How about anyone else?
