I gaffed it with a hand made flying gaff which attached to the 15foot solid alloy pole that we had for a gaff and then another fixed gaff which was a bit close to the skin along the top of the head which ripped out as we were lifting the big bugger out , that's a strip of flesh hanging off along the top , heart in the mouth stuff man , but we all saw much bigger fish and got seriously smoked on more than one occasion
