i had to post this one.jonathon(fishinaddiction)said i had it on for at least 30 minutes.i thought it was a big bull red,or a stingray,since i could never turn it.i saw the wiffle of my spool once,and then i was finally able to turn his head and gain back line.i was throwing a plum/chartreuse sand eel,and it felt like a flounder tap,he barely popped it.we he realized he was hooked,it was all over.had to walk out and get wet.i think it was worth it.jonathon took some really cool pictures,and i released him in great condition.unbelievable fight on light tackle.we guesstimated him at about 35lbs,not sure.could have been more or less.he was big and HEAVY!

That looks like fun... I've never had any luck with the big ones. Even with 'em circling around me wading but they wouldn't touch a thing. I've even tried fishing for them with fresh crab. Figure I would of snagged one by now... Nice catch!
