Default Nice Fish
That's a big thresher!

I caught one a few years ago out of Cape May and it was 295. Caught it on a 29 Phoenix with a transom door so I was able to bring it aboard.

My boat neighbor took one today around 300lbs and last week 100 lbs.

Great tasting shark as well and great catch on a V!

Awesome!

You got more balls than me. I would not have tried gaffing that sucker with a 2 man crew on a 20 footer.

I plan on some shark trips this summer but I'll be releasing. Where were you? Threshers have been in fairly close. My brother got 2 in the Mud Hole last week.
