This pic was featured in a Bertram ad in Marlin Magazine I think in October and November 2005. We fished the Orange Beach Billfish Classic on a 510 Bertram Demo offered by Marine Max.  The tournament is tag and release only.  We hooked the fish at roughly 6:45 am on the second morning at the ELF rig off south pass LA.  We estimated her at 500+ and fought her for almost 4 hours on 50lb class.  This picture is right after the tag was placed and she broke the leader at almost the same time this picture was taken.  Wire man pictured is Sean Garrison and the tag man standing below was myself Jeremy Creech.
Best Regards,
