I managed one smaller guy today. Most fish were in that 20-40ft range.

Thanks man. Its a Hobie Pro Angler 14. Probably one of the most stable yaks out there. Im 240lbs and can walk front to back on it without tipping it over. All the years Ive had it and everything ive been in and through it has not come close to tipping once.

There is alot happening. Depending on the side the fish takes I have to make sure I hold a straight line not to catch the downrigger cable in the prop. When the fish gets close motor goes off so the fish doesnt shoot into it which has happened to me in the past. Quite a rude way to get cut off lol. And with all that going on, I try to maintain line of sight to make a good video. Its a workout.

Very nice, I haven't even pulled the footage off of my gopro yet. I dont expect the video to be very good I had the camera off for the first half of the fight when the fish expended all of its energy.
