Awesome fish! Last time I fished for grouper I ended up using an 80W on a bent butt rod with the drag locked down. We would wait for them to hit and tow them out away from the wreck with the motor. But the biggest I reeled in was hardly twenty pounds. I could not imagine 34. Still had a fit reeling them up even with the reel in low gear. Snapper and grouper have no comparison on how they fight. Good job on the catch!
