Me and Andrew(bruiser08) have been going out almost every weekend and haven't even got a click well that changed today when we went to boca. after spending 3 hours with the same mullet out i finally get a run and it put a little pressure on and didnt run i thought i was snagged :( and we all know what come out after that. i ended up landing a 75 inch jew fish estimated 250 - 300lb . my first ever landed. i have hooked them but never landed one so that was nice. now on with the pics.







Andrew has a video of it i am waiting on once i get that ill post it.

edit here is the video.
