This is not a kayak story but a kayaker did catch the fish below.

For more of the story and Tropical storm Erika see the link below.

......The battle lasted 45 minutes before Lance was able to gaff the fish. Looking at pic 3 we estimated it was about 5 feet long. We did not get a girth measurement as Lance was pretty much whipped by the battle and we wanted to get the fish revived and back into the water. Afterwards Lance crumpled to the ground and said "Jesus, take me, I'm ready!"
