It was a calm, flat, nice, sunny day we were sitting on anchor patiently waiting watching the balloons and staring it the sounder.  There was a was plenty of bait fish around and the sun was starting to set when I got up to let a little bit more line out on one of the baits.  I felt two quick tugs on the line, then the balloon went under and the drag started screaming.  We both jumped up started the boat, got off anchor, brought in all of the other lines and we were off. But then things went bad quickly when the fish went for the anchor and the line got wrapped in but the thought quickly and cut the anchor rope untangled it and tied it back together then we were good to go.  After about an hour of going and fourth we finally got the fish to the surface it started circle we threw the harpoon and missed the fish went back down. We got it back up pretty quickly and this time we hit.  We quickly tail roped it and got it in the boat.  Then we gutted it out brought it in and it was time to celebrate while we were waiting for the buyer.
