Ever seen a 15-pound bonefish? It looks more like a silver football than a real fish. Carl Navarre recently submitted one that he caught in Islamorada for the new IGFA 20-lb. tippet record. Meanwhile, down in Key West, Dr. Martin Arostegui landed an enormous lemon shark while fishing with Ralph Delph, who has done much to pioneer release techniques for large fish. In the New York Post.
