Guess if your fishin solo your Sh!t out of luck gettin it out the water.

Adam, I'm awaiting your post on getting some cooler water 7's!!!

Eric, I honestly don't think I could of safely taken it out of the water, I without a doubt think it was right at the 300# mark, we barely could move it...and to think I was expecting a 50" inch bat :o

Eric, i got my 102" out of the water solo, but it tired me out so much that a surfer came over to help me get her back in. I guessed my fish was 220. I'm thinking Rays is 290/300! Just a guess of course, but probably not too far off.

It's all Tom and Don's fault! They "hooked" me on mud marlins and sharks!

Good GRAVY..that is a beast!!  Congratulations!!  I can't even imagine the size of that thing in person.  I'm amazed at 5 ft leopards.. but THIS!!

Tom you must be really chomping at the bit now..

raychavez91

Thanks man, it felt surreal to me seeing that thing roll out of the surf thrashing around 8)

Just FYI I believe the current record is 322lbs. It'd be cool if we got a IFGA certed scale, and one of us nailed a record, Tom excluded because he already has a whopper mac record  ::).

raychavez91

I better start lifting in that case lol
But man that would be a sweet surf catch record...makes you wonder how heavy they exactly are...
And what's this on mack record?

Latimeria

Don't forget my all tackle igfa record sargo! (Oh wait, someone just beat that record, but i held it for 6 years!) lol

I have a sling scale to weigh them up to 440 pounds, but the scale would never be able to be certified. I might have to start taking it out anyway to see what weights we're talking about.

No way in hell I'm holding the scale up with a nine foot shark in it.
