Big Sailfish Caught (twice) by Kayaker in Hawaii

A kayak angler landed a 7 foot 3 inch sailfish, that weighed in at 61 pounds, three miles off the coast of Oahu. As reported by Kayak Angler Online, the sailfish snapped the line but then was re-hooked immediately by a second rig the fisherman had in the water.

The entire fight took only about 30 minutes. It's rare to get a second chance at the fish that got away, but this lucky angler got it.
