This one took a lot of line with the drag set tight but it was more of an up and down fight. I had the drag set really tight and it would peel off a bunch going towards the bottom and then let me get some back before it went down again. That was a week ago and I'm still pumped. 24lbs of fillets, we've had it pan seared, and in fish tacos so far. Tonight will be vera cruz style. Good stuff!
