80Lb Corvina "Argyrosomus regius"

From May to July is the season of Corvinas (european cousin of your White Sea Bass) here in Portugal, so me and my buddys, Ramos and Bruno were try them near the "Vasco da Gama" bridge in Lisbon.
Leave you a photo report of our adventure, where I beat my personal record with a 79.36 Lb Corvina.























My two buddys also caught good fish. Ramos with a 44Lb Corvina and Bruno with two of around 35Lb.

Seeing that fish reminds me of a line from the movie JAWS "CAPTAIN YOUR GOING TO NEED A BIGGER BOAT". Hopefully they taste good, because if it was my family that's what we would be eating every night for the next 6 months or so.
I'm a spearfishing guy, and see Goliath Groupers and Tarapin that size once in a while down here in Florida. I think I would let something that size just pass me by for fear of being dragged for miles.
Nice catch

those are some BEASTLY fish
good job!

Incredible catch, thanks for sharing, nice photos.

Nice corvina! That one you got is a stud!! We've been getting some 10-15 pounders lately but nothing like that. Some of my favorite fish to eat! How's the meat quality on those big ones?
