I'm going to try and post a couple photos of the rooster. One will be a 40lb I caught two days earlier and the Grande Pez Gallo. Compare the two and make a guess on the weight of the big one

The pangero took the first one and some guy on the beach took the second one

Shit , Jay ..... Do you think you could have found one bigger to throw at ?!?

That fish looks to be anywhere between 68-85 lbs. , if I had to guess . Did you bring a change of shorts with you on that day :roll: ??

Where do you go from there ?? A 600 lb. Blue Marlin on a 10 wt. ?? You might as well quit this fishing nonsense and give ME all of your gear .....

Congratulations on a Rooster that won't be topped anytime soon !!

That's really just PhotoShop in action evrybody. O-N-L-Y K-I-D-D-I-N-G. That is a GRAND catch amigo! "Taking it on the fly" makes it even sweeter considering how some folks laugh at us when we're in the middle of the fleet. 8)
Cheers, K

Oh Yea!!! What a monster! Jay You Da Man!!! That fish is bigger than you! Your stories of the fishing were great and now the photos are the icing on the cake. You sure you didn't use a winch to land that one? Is it like this every year?

Hey SteelieD,

It not only elevated fly fishing to the next level, it blew it off the scale
