Congrats!

That was a hard one to catch!
The heaviest one I caught was also 34 stones like Hydraken's catch. I figured it was too light to submit. Hehe

Hydrake fished for 3 hrs before catching that one, threw his pole away at least once, so when he pull one up at weight only 34 stones he was almost ready to toss it back but then remember it took him three hours to get this one and said "Naw they getting this one" wrapped it in the local news and dropped it at the mail box.

I assumed by the low number of submission that this one was difficult to catch. Hopefully the next one won't be nearly as rough. :)

I understand I get to pick the fish for the month of March... I just went through the list and I pick the King fish
I picked this because they say Lord Black Thorn says he caught one but was never verified.. well not to brag in 2013 Sweaver girl caught 3 it's ashame I can't use the one I already have 193 stones... so good luck everyone I am out to out do my last one. you can find them in Trammel and feluccia deep water that is my hint... sweaver girl!

Shadow Walker has used 893 bait so far fishing for this tough to catch Kingfish and only caught 2 and neither of them even come close to that giant 193 stone one, Sweaver Girl, He's definitely a hard challenge. The "Trophy" one Shadow caught years ago and has on his wall is only 153 stones so he knows this is a difficult task but he loves a good challenge.

Pass two days while doing SOS, I been trying to catch one, between moving the boat from A - B. For me, it is going to be a matter of luck as I have no bait for that fish

Well, note my post above, bait don't do much for legendary fish, it's only a slight portion of 1% and makes little difference IMO. Shadow Walker uses bait and a bait suit and he is now used up al his 1600 bait and still just 2 funky Kingfish,

I do believe the catchability of this fish has been hacked and I'm afraid that perhaps some bug (intended or unintended) from some publish may have made all Legendary fish nearly uncatchable.
During all this time I have caught just one Blue Marlin and I used to catch at least one of them in a normal order turnin day just sailing between spots and sometimes 2 or 3.

I have caught a lot of Yellowtail Barracuda (more than 1500 fishsteaks) and I shudder every time I get one because I know that catching that one was a chance of catching a Kingfish gone down the old whirlpool.

I guess that's why they call it "fishing" and not "catching"
