This was the largest thresher I've ever seen, the go pro definitely does not do it justice. After some acrobatics, it smoked me. A beautiful fish and I'm happy to say it's still swimming somewhere out there. . . .

Those are some awesome shots from the video. You are so lucky to have seen it that close. The largest one I hooked a few years back, took me on a long sleigh ride making circles, changing direction and then just going straight and really fast before jumping just above the surface pulling a 180 in mid air and using it's tail to just cut my 65lb braid like if it was rice paper. Never got as close or as good a look as you got. I'm really jealous of such a marvelous view you got.

I saw u out there..
I hooked up twice but the fight was only 5 minutes. My nephew could've land his but I told him to cut his line. We're rookie when it comes to shark fishing. He had a blast fighting it for over 30 minutes.

Those pics are beautiful. You should pick your best one and put it on canvas at Costco.

A beautiful species indeed, and a lot of fun to watch in action terrorizing the bait balls. Glad I could share these with you. Welcome Reiner. I'm loving that filter effect Momo, you have some legit photoediting skills.
