There we were a quarter mile off the West jetty having a good ole' time. Next thing you know...the clicker on my Calcutta 200 starts SCREAMING, the flight was on. Before I could get the rod out of the rod holder I was almost spooled!!!!!!! My girlfriend attempted to pull in the anchor with not much luck. (I have to do everything.) NOW the fight is on. My girlfriend takes the rod. The shark takes us from outside the jetty into the pass with speed boats, jet skis and all the other yahoo's that were in the way. Like an expert, my girlfriend handles my pole. Ha, ha, ha, running circles around the boat...the shark works us for 45 minutes. These pictures are the fruits of our labor. Released to swim again...even with all the blood.     
Price of a cell phone in the "drink": $200.00 Price of a Afco gaff: $100.00 Price of seeing my girlfriend riding my pole: priceless...

i droped the phone over the side trying to pull the anchor and hand off the rod, and when i went to release the shark i caught the gaff on my thigh and it went into the drink i couldnt grab it and hold the fish so i figured i would revive the fish and just buy a new gaff.
