We have caught bull reds at three mile a lot. A couple times, we were on my friend's boat using his senators with 40# mono while pulling stretches. That was WAY overkill. Every time I hooked a fish, I would get it on top in under 10 seconds and basically skip the fish back to the boat. All you need is 20# mono, maybe 30# if you're worried about losing rigs.

with that kind of line of course id hope you turn a redfish... the biggest red recorded is just over 92 lbs........ damn sun tie it off to the cleet and pull that fucker out!
its like catching fish with tnt...they have no chance
i think the fun in FISHING is you catch some an some...well some can get away.. not. put a rope around it an drag it out of the hole while smoking a doob and getting brian at the same time... thats not even a fight.....thats just stupid... but hey you can fish with anchor line all you want noone stopping you.

no but on the serious side... you should lighten up a bit... let the fish run...you know they do that right? there not like jew fish....and if you use lighter tackle....theres alot longer of a run too!

I can see why they are using such big tackle if they are targeting big quanities of fish. When I fish for Bull Reds I use a Penn 550, Penn Slammer Rod and 20# Power Pro . But I love to fight the fish, and on my set up it's a dam good, long fight.

you would be better off trying to set the 2lb-4lb line class world records than the 80lb
With the slot limit how would you get an oversized fish to igfa scale legally in Fla?

| lil skeet im sorry for derailing your thread but seriosly thats a bit over kill for redfish and how a tarpon snapped 85lb power pro i would like to know ive seen cobia go under the pier and head south while they are hooked and that dosnt brake 30 lb line or 50lb power pro but who cares good job on hooking the tarpon and catch as many of those bull redfish you can ohh and you might want to upscale you rod a litlle bit it is rated up to 40 lb line and your using 85 that is disaster waiting to happen when you hook one of those stud bull reds

well the best thing to do is call the igfa.. to be honest with you you do have a good question. it will have the sme weight as long as you keeping it in your live well alive.... fuck the retain law if you catch a 30#fish on 4# line just when you catch it use a digi scale to weigh it if its of record size call the igfa that second...but theres alot more than that you have to do.. like send in 10 yards of line for testing.. that can take them months... but hey if you want a record do the damn thing....youll have your record if you keep chasing it!

Bryan Bennett (8/24/2008) Hey, Staal, you reckon a fish weighs the same in a boat as it does on dry land, according to the IGFA? And are you recommending that skeet breakthe law and retain an oversized red? Why didn't I think of that?
if a hen laid an egg on the north side of the barn which way does it fall?
