Personally know of 3 good pals 50 's which were caught on the outer cape after halloween. Wasn't tony stetzko's 73 nov 13.
I always felt the really BIG fish left a little later than the rest.
Just a few hardy lunatics chasing them.

Bruce..
teaser was a "Black Beauty" tied by T.C.
on what would be considered, antique gear today...
and from what I've been told, the reel was not in the best working order either..
