    Higuys,
    Sorry for the one liner - just busy with charters at the moment.
    The fish was caught silver/pink jig using a Shimano Trinidad on a Zenaq jig rod & 80lb Power-Pro spectra.
    It weighed in at 90.06 Kg, about 200lbs.
    Angler was Bill Busch (visiting from the USA) aboard my charterboat 'Bite Me'. We are based on Kadavu Island, Fiji Islands.
    It was the largest of 4 we caught that day. We actually spent the morning popper casting for GTs and only spent a few hours jigging in the afternoon. 16 GTs in the morning and 4 dogtooth in the afternoon.Pretty good day.
