47 Inch Rockfish

I caught this 47 inch 39.5 pound rockfish, Saturday May 4, 2013 out in Solomons Island in the Shipping Channel. Fishing that day was very quick, early in the morning catching fish in the range of 37 inches and 41 inches. Slowed down in the afternoon and then hooked up on to this fish around 1 PM.
