Anyway, caught this off Cape Cod this fall. 70". Never weighed, but it's over 200lbs..(thanks to Albiemanmike)

Finally broke the 200 rang on a jig this year for the BFT. Caught it on a home made Labo Jig, Jig Star rod, JM PE5 reel, JB65lb soild core, etc. It was a fun fish and knew right away it was a little bigger than the others we caught in CC. The head shakes were awesome!!!
We didn't have a tape on board so Capt Dom came over and measured he got 71" and at the dock it was 70.5" with a real accurate measure. The LxW what ever converter gave us 210-217.

Jim do you get the this k2i1GSwMkD4 from you tube or do you download it here first? Thanks

[Sea Draggin]

What you do is open the video ( or click on it in youtube ). Then you will see the little code sequence up at the top of the page while its playing. You just copy and paste it into the set of bracketed youtubes.

fishingnz works the same way but there code is [tube] ..... [/tube]

I'll shoot you my home number and you can call me tonight if you want to help out.

[jig42na]

Thanks, I'll try this again. It looks like it is the code after the = sign.
