We were looking for a big Cubera that we saw swim towards this big Coral head. When I checked under the Coral head, I saw this big Midnight and knew I.t was a world record considering my buddy had the record before this. I loaded the polespear, hit the fish and It tried to go deeper into this head. I kicked to the surface pulling the fish with me and had It on the boat shortly after.
