This was one hell of a fight! 42-inch amberjack. We had everything from Goliath grouper to every snapper specie you could think of and a few nice red grouper to round it out.
One of those great days on the water.

Awesome fish, George!
About 50 years ago my Dad and I were on a charter out of Ft. Lauderdale and I battled an Amberjack that weighed in just under 60#, easily the toughest battle I ever had short of a Tuna. As I mentioned to you the other day they are like the largest Bluefish you ever caught on mega doses of STEROIDS!!!

I think I'm fishing up there during that time. Hubbard's Charters 12 hour trip.
We ran 31 miles to get to 60 feet of water. Luckily we were on a rocket ship with 3 350's and the sea were perfect.
Never will get used to Gulf of Mexico depths vs distance offshore as opposed to Gulf of Maine. Casting from a rock ledge here will easily get a person into >70' of water...
Always a fan of fish stories, and a little embellishing. Is that 300 the kicker to the trip 350's. Haha. Just kidding George.
You're not the first person to point that out
I confused it with the boat I had fished the week before.
