great catch! Can't wait to get back out there and start catching these pesky suckers again.

Just one suggestion.................it sounds like you managed to gaff the fish without any issues but in the future do your best to gaff it right in the gut, that seems to tame them and it makes it easier to handle them.

again, nice catch!!
