What's funny here is that anyone who has fished with Mike knows he fishes a very tight drag at all times. Not only was his drag very tight but he was constantly palming the spool as you can see in the video. Based on how aggressive he was with this fish I can't imagine anyone taking this fish in less time with the combo he used. Does anyone know what the average 60 inch bluefin weighs? Thought I saw somewhere 125lbs maybe?
