Turns out the scale was in a different metric system and supposively weighed like 120 pounds. It was awhile ago I read that so don't quote me on it.

Bingo, they caught it in Panama. It would have blown away the all tackle record.

I believe they caught this bull while filming an episode of Tred Barta's show. Barta also did an article in Sportfishing Magazine on it. They show the fish being weighed during the episode, and you can hear Braid go "65, I don't believe it!"
