big fish!!
 

After two trips and about 8 hours of fighting I land one of two. The first hook up lasted almost 5 hours the day before, to end with a broken leader.:eek: yesterday I landed this one after a two and half hour battle. :reel:

My arms are sore today!!
Thanks to Premo. Could not have done it without ya!!!:cheers1:

Nice T-Shark:cheers1:

Nice fish, I bet you were totally bummed after five hours! Worthy opponet from a kayak for sure...

nice one, wouldnt want to catch that tail portside though:eek:

Wow that is a beast

haha picture 2 got texted to me ;D

That fish looks much bigger in the other pics though! nice work man. I think we'll be out there tomorow!

Out of curiosity what # line were you using?

Very nice shark there
 

Two and a half hrs. Wow that was a battle.

50lb spec, 10ft,150lb steel leader. shimano tr100 reel, and a shity shimano voltaus rod! It was quite a ride, pulled me at 10 mph for about 45 min before getting tired.

"10 MPH for 45 minutes"? Does that mean that this shark dragged you around for about 7.5 miles? I hope it wasn't all heading due west. That would be a long paddle back with 100 pounds of fish in your lap.

Hefty!

I don't recognize the wall behind you. Where were you fishing?

good lord! id like to give that a try one of these days. congrats and one hell of a fish.

Nice fish....even better fish story!

Awesome. I saw this post at work and I cant see the pics from that computer, so I sat and wondered. Didnt really do any work, just wondered. Got home and brushed past the wife to get online. Damn. Well done.:you_rock:

Ive got some 100lb mono, anyone think that will work for a leader? :linesnap:

XXL! Very cool.

100lb should be just fine...I hooked up on 25lb before and was fine for about 20 min :)

nice T-SHARK!

Tis a biggun!!!! :cheers1:

Very impressive!!! Congratulations!

Killer Shark!
 

That had to be a blast roping and bringing on board> Or tied along side? Where in the ocean were you? Can I go?

PS Did you get a weight on Mr. T?

2.5 hours??? That takes guts to hang in there, what a fight that must have been!! Congrats to you! And I hope I never hook one of those!!:you_rock:

Wow! Big Shark!!:eek:
