How a squid can spoil your day
How it came up after a 2.5 hrs fight by Chris, the thought on-board that it got tail wrapped then a squid took it down, caught off Port Macquarie NSW

Pretty 'gutsy' fish there. Shame to lose all the offspring tho'.

I pray that one day God sends me a fish so big that, when talking of it...I have no reason to lie.

You would not want to be under the ocean for 2.5 hrs if that is the result. Farking big squid that did that.
