Nothing better than seeing a 40lb king, with a 2+lb hardtail, sideways in his mouth, like a dog holding a bone, sky 6-8 foot out of the water 30 yards off the transom when he explodes on it. Yeah! Had the same thing happen a couple times, incredible. Once had a big king blow out of the water after chopping the bait in half and as soon as he hit back down in the water the reel starts screaming as he nailed the other half. We had one nail about a 5 pound red snapper on the way up to the boat, thought it was a cuda but was a huge king. Didn't get that one but it convinced us to use huge live baits. Biggest one we ever caught was on about a 5 pound live bait. I remember laughing at my brother when he rigged it up but one nailed it about a minute after it hit the water. You'd be shocked at how big of a bait they will eat. They will absolutely murder a 3-4lb bluefish or bonita. We caught a giant as in probably close to 4 or 5 lb hardtail one day and bridled him up. He got chopped in half (fish somehow missed the stinger) and the fish never came back but the surface boil when he hit, looked like someone had flushed a toilet the size of a full size SUV.
