Looks more like "held the gill plate for a picture" to me

Wow, surprised he got it to the surface. Caught one about 300# in the Sea of cortez years back on a 7 day trip, it was like dragging up the bottom.

Pretty cool story and outcome, also sounds like a pretty responsible mothership crew.

Nice plug for mothership trips on the Black Pearl.

Kinda looks like they were concerned about the fish's recovery after the fight? Maybe they were trying to aerate it a bit before release.

Hey, I'm not saying I wouldn't do the same thing, I just call it like I see it.

Awesome Ride!!!
