No, it was on one of the 2 spinning outfits behind her seat on a medium mackerel patterned Yozuri plug. She caught the 34lber on a live sardine.

They were 2 totally different fights that she had too. The record fish was just a tough slug that stayed vertical for 15 minutes 10 feet below her, never really moving her off it's spot. She didn't dare horse it on the fresh water gear.
The 34 lber was all kinds of ballistic, making runs, towing her, when I gaffed it, it tailwalked and splashed the hell out of me, but somehow stayed on the gaff.

10 years later, and I remember it like it was yesterday, I'm sure she does too.
