But it's on the internet...it must be true!  (http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f4/usagi_pj/emoticon-0136-giggle.gif)

Hasn't this story shown up on the forum before?  I seem to remember seeing it here in the last year.

The true story is still pretty crazy though...caught hook & line by a sports fisherman?  That must have been one heck of a fight!

8'6" Thresher caught on 20 lb. mono in Nov 2008 off the Flemish Cap.  Fought it for 1.25 hours, towed me 1.25 miles.  Jumped clean out of the water 4 times, 1 jump was around 8' out of the water. Insane!  See "Nurple Point" story for the long version!!!

Caught this thresher off Newport Beach July 3rd in 90 FOW on my new Malibu Extreme with a "Boogieyak" attachment.  Measured 6' 2" nose to tail, 38" body.  If you haven't tried thresher you may be surprised - it's delicious.

 We don't like to talk about it  :smt009. Six of us went out an got to watch one guy catch all the fish  :smt011. Cajun caught this sevengill, then an hour goes by an he nails a fatty bat ray, another hour goes by an he nails a second sevengill. All the rest of us sat around an did'nt get one nibble an we were all using the same bait  :smt044. Oh well. Was awsome to see the sevengills though. Dang things got mighty mad when we wrangled em up for pics. We drug this one to the rock island to take pics an C&R. Way to toothy an livley to pull into the yak on your lap

that is genious using those boogie boards as stabilizers.... i was looking for something similar to this but to no avail. I dont want to jock someones style but i might have to fabricate something like that! for me i would use them like training wheels!

Biggest "fish" I ever caught from my kayak.
8ft 9in Thresher shark caught at San Clemente Island during the 2013 NCKA trip on The Islander in June. Hooked on a giant Mag Rapala.
Fought for 2.5 hrs and it dragged me nearly 2 miles...away from the Islander. The mofo was tail-hooked!

Was quite a battle to subdue him but well worth it...ton of meat that tasted more like a delicate pork than fish  :smt003

Can finally add to the shark thread! 48 inch leopard shark that took me for a sleigh ride for a while before tiring out and giving some back and forth for 15 minutes before I could grab him and pull him aboard.

They are such pretty fish.

While out rock/ halibut fishing I hooked into this beast a Pacific Angel Shark. Was getting ready to head in for the day and was trolling a Halibut set up with a dead herring. He slammed it! Good fight and a lot of power! Once I got him close to the yak to release him he chomped down on my yak handle! Could hear the power in his jaws! Got some good teeth marks on my yak handle! Made it an easy position to remove the hooks! Great release and was a sight to watch em swim back down!
