hurricane Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 This is a Golden Trevally. Sight casted him in about a foot water with a small crab. What a great fight, thought I was gonna loose him. He got me around something and I could feel the line rubbing badly. Was so surprised it didn't break, only 10lb braid. Fight lasted about 20 drag screaming scary minutes. Tough rocky bottom and a nice jagged ledge to deal with, but I won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whichwaysup Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Very cool. Man, that sounds like a heck of a fight. 20 mines of screaming drag? Love the sound of that screaming drag. Someday I am gonna find a way to make it my ring tone. I'd call myself every few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RipTide Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 That's a cool looking fish.Your lucky your not home. Rained half the day yesterday and now it's getting colder and blowin like crazy. The weather has been rotten for 2 weeks. That's an understatement!!! Haven't been able to fish w/ pole or diving. Grrrr Or should I say it's been so nasty as mentioned above that I don't wish to go fishing regardless of the means of retrieval. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
