When you are used to seeing 8 to 12 inch Spotties year after year, it can really blow your mind when you get one that's 18 inches or better. I caught one in the late 90's that size and haven't seen another like it since!

I have only hit the 3# mark twice in 8+ years of fishing HH, that is a big dark rock dwelling beast

Nice fish!
Short bites suck, those things will keep you on your toes with the shotgun hook-set at the ready. Ive had success trap rigging those small hammers with a small treble or single on the tail and fluoro ran through the bait, kinda tedious but not bad if you have them pre made up before the trip. |
