USA: caught in Louisiana a big 115 lb warsaw grouper

While fishing in 300 feet of water, close to an oil rig off Louisiana coasts, angler Kevin Hatcher got slammed by this 115 lb - 52 kg warsaw grouper.

He fought the bi grouper for 30 minutes on a Shimano 50W with 80 lb main line and a 200-lb leader. He was fishing the "Grand Isle Tarpon Rodeo" and even though warsaw was not a category, they made a big show at the weigh-in.
