cool beans. Just need to give Ryley some crap. can't wait to see more pics. Herd the news shortly after it happened. Spud called Kelly then Kelly called me.
Hope he saved the tail for a mount or at least got a good measurement of it.

Never broke 100 my self so I can't imagine boating that beast. Gilled a 75 by hand once with no gaff, harpoon or net in the boat. Grabbed him by the throat and beat his head against the side of the boat for about 10 minutes before dragging him over the rail.
Congrats to all involved. Even Ryley. Something you all will remember every time you hear the words Big Fish

Maybe even more impressive is that Cathy was in the same area and didn't beat him to that fish.
