That is certainly a very large fish.
If a 10 lber can make you ache, that thing would put me in Intensive Care. :-?

When they were legitimate quarry, did people eat them ?
I assume they taste the same as other grouper. :lick:

It's a cool story and thats a big one to land on hook and line but the get a WHOLE LOT BIGGER. I've seen some diving that could eat that one. Doubt you'd land one on hook and line.
