Awesome!
What did you do with the first one? Big fish bag? I usually use the in floor boxes on my 2860 and just planned to head in if we ever get something that big.
I’ve been thinking about running to the Spur to try for a swordfish but need to gear up. What size reel, line, etc?
That second fish was a monster, congrats!

I’ve been thinking about running to the Spur to try for a swordfish but need to gear up. What size reel, line, etc? That second fish was a monster, congrats! The first fish we put in the bag and iced down. After catching the second one, we were able to put the first fish in one of the forward boxes. I had to bend it and force it in but it fit. The second one went in the bag, somewhat. The bag was not big enough so we had to make do and hurry in. I have a 50 wide Tiagra in a Connley rod with 2400 feet of 80 pound braid. Bimini twist at end of braid with a 120 foot 300 pound wind on. I make all my wind ones and rig my own baits. I have tried the spur a couple time with out a bite. I know a lot of fish are caught there but it hasn’t been good to me. These fish were caught about 50 miles west of the spur.

I'm so jealous thanks for sharing. Still no power or Wi-Fi or Internet or anything at my house so I've been going missing.
