This years biggest boated fish to date. On an eel in a pond outflow just after the tide turned at dusk. The length was a good measure; the weight was more problematic as my boat scale is creaky as hell and is not particularly accurate.
She's still swimming; her 30" brother is in the fridge. I feel good about that exchange.
To my surprise I picked up the fish about 30 seconds after a T-top hot shot had blazed over that very spot!
