Jeff Pierce of Atlanta landed what would have been the new Georgia state record Tarpon had he wanted to kill it. A length and girth formula on the fish brought her weight to a grand total of 188 pounds, beating the old record by 27 pounds! The fish was landed with an Ugly Stick Custom 30-60 class rod and a Penn Squall reel loaded with 65-pound Spiderwire Invisi-Braid. The hook that held the old girl was a Mustad 14/0 circle. Thanks to Jeff for letting this old girl swim free!
