In July 2009. one of the anglers on the Possession Limit caught a state record Misty Grouper which weighed about 3lbs. However, due to a communications snafu, the fish was disposed of before the required photos were taken and it was never submitted for TP&W certification.
About a month later, on August 12, 2009, Mike Luchak was filling a last minute opening as a member of the crew. He dropped a homemade knife jig to the bottom in about 500′, and landed his first ever state record, a 5lb-11oz Misty Grouper. This was only his second trip on the Possession Limit.
