Wade- there was no glowing egg sinker hanging from it, go back and get that one you lost!

this thing put up a hell of a fight, surprised i didn't lose it, missed the gaff shot twice and had to take pauses in fighting it so i could paddle out of the surf zone

I went from excitement to nervousness when I saw how big it was, filleted it up last night and threw some on the grill, very tasty.

I will probably never catch one like this again but that is one hell of a fish to have as my first
