Now that's a GT.... Good for warming up ah, I could only imagine the grunt that a Trevor like him would make, the visual take on a popper, of a fish like that, would be something else.... let me at em.......

That looks like Chris CW Teng, field tester for HOTS, location? Taiwan?
Weapon was most likely Wie World 48XXH / SW20000PG
These guys tell me that if you like catching GT's on poppers, on jig, they're mind blowing!

Do you think it was down deep , its eyes look popped.

If my speculation above is correct, then most likely it was down deep.  Most Taiwan jigging takes place in 180m depth, which isn't to say this fish was on the very bottom, but most likely somewhere near it.
