it went stupid on 6kg! i had another lure out so had 2 let it go and reel the other one in, went bout 200 meters straight behind the boat and didnt stop!
bout 10mins, let him run heaps then when stopped he came straight back to the boat in one run then just tired him out for a while so he didnt ping me! pretty hard to gaff by yourself but got him in eventually!
