Not exactly one of our target species, on June 6 2009, Scott Smith brought this little fella up while we were fishing for grouper and snapper. It only weighed 1.125lbs, but turns out it beat the existing rod and reel record by one ounce, giving Scott his first state record and another state record species for the Possession Limit.
In the spring of 2017, Scott purchased the original “Possession Limit” and renamed it the “Blue Sky”. Hopefully he will position it over a few more state and world record catches in the coming offshore seasons. As a matter of fact he already has… in 2018, the Blue Sky added 3 more state records to the legacy.
