Reef Donkey, love it. You sure did not look like a Jackass there my friend.
Nice fish

Damn that was a fat amber jack. Fished for those once on a charter out of daytona a while back. Came in and the mate ran one into a restaurant and came out ten minutes later with the tastiest fried fish nuggets i have ever had

Couple of my college buddies paid the mortgage off on that place.

Agreed. I've hooked up with some real bruisers before I couldnt turn before they got in the wreck (only 100' deep). Ive had em make a 6/0 and 100# braid scream like a Zebco 404. They aint no joke.

Yep, as far as pound-for-pound fighters they gotta be in the top 3.

Your Zebco comment reminded me of when I saw a reel literally get beat to peices on one. It was a little shi**y shimano that toasted the drag washers and then it was all over with a puff a smoke. Shortly after I had the "get what ya pay fer" conversation with my buddy.....I didnt have to sell it that hard, the AJ did most of the talkin!!!!
