This has got to be one of my most epic trips. A member of our group caught this one early last month on the Big Island.
From shore, the first of two that day. I'm am grateful to witness and experience it and also to be the gaff man.
I do not expect it to be repeated for the rest of my fishing days.


Wow, that is an epic day of shore fishing !!

.Hope you took lots of pictures, so when you're old and grey you can show your great grandkids

Catch of a lifetime !! Congratulations !! WOW  :) :)

Thanks Don, like I stated, I did not catch it but am blessed to experience and be a part of the event.
The reel used was a Penn 50TW filled with 1500 yards of 80# Power pro and the rod was a 40 year old 13' Sabre 540 Ulua pole.
Aloha,
Stuart
