Freshwater would be a spoonbill I snagged about 25 years ago. Didn't keep it but probably in the 30 to 40 pound range. I was anchored in the river casting into the mouth of a ditch and jerking a big treble with a bass rod. I caught 10 or 12 in the 10 to 15 pound range. Then I hooked one that was like a truck. I had to freespool the reel and pull the anchor up. I chased him with the trolling motor. And it was at least a1/4 mile downstream before I could get him to the boat and unhook him. Not near like the one above.
That thing is a beast.
