I am with you. I know my limitation.
There is absolutely no chance to land a 1400 lbs marlin on a jig.
I'll contend with coral trout or grouper on jigs.
My friend Capt. Mark fished Hudson Canyon today and lost three big bluefin tuna. Two fish were estimated at over 300 lbs judging from the way they fought. The other fish estimated 200 lbs was lost near boatside. He said he caught the fish on a diamond jig. I've waited the whole year to get 200-300 lbs bluefin tuna on jigs and it is time to go.
I am ready to go anytime as soon as I can find a window to get out.
