I was out there a number of years ago (2003 i think), back when you could still use the big steel. I caught a 180 lb. male on the 2nd day, it was a pretty exciting morning. I would like to get back out there and catch one in a snare.....but time, money, and an assortment of other trips havent allowed it yet. Good luck on your trip, let us know how it turns out.
