FLORIDA: caught a monster size 66 lb kingfish


Female angler Diane Marteliz of Tampa, FL, wanted to go on a fishing trip so her husband booked a trip aboard charter boat "Jaws Too" of Capt. Dave Mistretta,

She was so lucky to catch a monster size 66.8 pounds - 30.26 of king mackerel.

Capt. Dave  said he found the big king about 20 miles offshore in 70 feet of water. Locating bait schools was key, and when Mistretta found a bunch of blue runners ganged up near the surface, he trolled live blue runners around the perimeter.
