    I came across this the other day and thought it looked like an incredible time. Greenland Shark Challenge If I win the lottery, I’ll charter a jet so we can have a GTG over there!

    Up to 21 feet long and 1700 lbs?
    Who is bringing the crane? Otherwise it is a questions of who is catching who.
    (I suppose ice anchors would be needed for the fishermans harness)

    Fishing at 800 to 1300ft depth? with 80-120lb test braided kevlar?
    Gonna need a somewhat bigger reel
    (Anybody got a range extender for the vexlar?)

    Anyway, it sure makes our little crappie harvesting look tame

    I had to chuckle at the “We support catch and release angling”…. Yeah, support it, but you apparently don’t pratice it! LOL. At least not on these critters.

    Looks like a lot of fun. Wonder how they taste?

    Maybe they let the “big ones” go?

    Should we send them a link to the St Croix Cat Rod Auction?
