Is this the same mild mannered, soft spoken Earl Rader that I used to sell hooks to? You must have stumbled onto the fountain of youth! That is one fat Warsaw and a beautiful gagfor sure. Great report and pics.

Awesome catch. So how big of a bait did it take to get those Groupers to bite? What kind of bait were you using?

Thanks for all the comments. That was my once in a lifetime catch. First Warsaw and largest grouper ever. I couldn't have had a better chance with Capt. Rog' as captain, Chaz Donovin on gaff. on Capt. Delynn's boat "Ms. Ida". One problem and I could have lost that fish!

It seemed like a long time maybe 20 minutes to get him up to the boat and he came up between the two outboard engines and Chaz grabbed him (or Her) with the gaff. Rog' guided the boat to keep me clear of any problems. When he was at 150 feet deep I could not believe how slow going it was but I keptreeling and finially their he was.

Thank you all for the comments. Earle "The Duke"
