Phat's cat may have to invite some of his neighborhood friends for that one. Congrats on a great trip and HUGE fish Phat!

Thanks guys. It was all this old man wanted to wrestle with. As far as the cat, she got the short end of the stick. Cleaned all the fish at my friend's house, no scraps for OZ. I never really saw the fish until we got back to the dock. I was fishing off the bow and fish came up along the stern. As soon as they gaffed it, it was in the fish box.

My second fish was 24", had to fight him some also.

Think I'll stick to trout & pompano.
