Nice fish. Chumming?

Briarcliff-Ben Loc: Westchester NY

Thanks for all the supportive comments. Such a great community and I learn so much from you all.

I cut it into steaks and steamed a few already... yes, very good eating. Fish head was used to make fish stock. To be used to make some fisherman's stew.

As for the catch, we used bunker chunks while the mate was chumming from the boat. My fish was so strong, it dragged me from one corner to the other while my fellow fishermen considerately played London Bridge under my line. Got to the other end and the fish almost pulled me over the rail. Great fight and finally pulled him in.
