Title: 6/12 -- 275LB Thresher
Post by: Pez Machine on June 13, 2010, 10:40:32 AM

We had the Siesholtz charter out Saturday afternoon for a thresher trip. Colin and his dad fought and lost a nice thresher last year on striper trolling gear and it sounds like threshers have been on Colin's mind since. We got on the drift in perfect sharking conditions and had a nice thresher take a bait an hour into it.

After a 90 minute fight Brian threw the dart and we put the 80" 275lb male in the boat.

Thanks guys!  It was really great to have a group of guys who wanted to target threshers and be able to put one in the boat.  A lot of times it doesn't work out that way and I feel fortunate it did.

here are a few more pictures:
