Default Re: Beaufort inlet

RAP, that record still stands and the guy actually hooked and fought one that was 1/3 bigger the day before, but lost it due to he and partner gaffing it while it was "green" after a relatively short fight. I think it was like an hour and a half or something. The fish sounded when he gaffec it and took the gaff with him.

They took their time on the 1700 lber. Taking more than 4 or 5 hours to land it.

They say that the BIG variety of tigers visit that area every single year. We're talkin a full ton of powerful, flesh eating power!
