You're telling me! Birds were just pounding the area and I was just pulling up when this ordeal started. They were gone by the time it was done. As it was I still didn't get to the launch until 9 p.m..
And you're 100% right on the by-catch and the ordeal afterwards. I wasn't too bummed...But thresher just tastes so good!
The 200 is just a rough estimate by me and the guys on the boat. I guess a rougher but more reasonable guesstimate would be just to say that this was DEFINITELY NOT a pup and that it was a quick and super easy decision for me to make that the fish was wayyyyyyy too big for me to handle on my own.
