That's some kind of fish!

Busy day here too...must do school and then start dinner (chicken roasted in the oven) at 2:30 so we can eat early...church starts at 6pm.

Have a great day 2J! Will try and check in later tonight...

Yeah, I think the little Zebco might not be enough for an 87 pounder, 2J.

Not sure what you'd need for it. In the ocean, one would want at least 50 lb test for a grouper of that size, and 80 is likely better. OTOH, if catfish fight like sailfish, and expend all their energy leaping and making lightning surface runs (which they don't), then 30 lb line would do it, and even 20 has a good chance.

In any event, I hope you get a big one.
