Torpedo? pretty much correct they can do at least 30mph and tear your fishing gear to shreds unless you know what your doing. That one is about 60lbs , I guess but the world record is 155lbs. They can hurt you really bad if your not careful. By the way this is a small game fish for this area. A year or so ago someone caught a 750lb Marlin. What do you do with that in the back of your boat???

Ask it nicely if it can steer while I roll a fag.
