Man, finally got it to work.. It weight in at 35lb. I thought it was more...This was a day picture, but we caught it at night.

I lost another what I think was a big swordfish. My Peterson reel was having a hard time pulling it until one damn sleeve gave up on me. First time it happens in over 15 years...

The meat is delicious...

Way to go Francisco! About have my reel ready to go thanks to the pictures you sent. The grouper is nice, but your lady and daughter are exceptional!

Thanks Dropalot. I sure will like to see pics of your final set up. On this grouper, the Peterson did not even feel the weight of the fish. I pulled up the bottom rig as it usually does when it comes empty. Man, its a really strong set up for sure. Thanks for the family compliment. Yep, they had a blast when I pulled the fish out and hanged it from the peterson for pic... :lol:

That's a yellow edge, without a doubt.
