What's the longest you've ever fought to land a fish?

Haven't fished much offshore, but landed a nice 100-150# Pacific Sailfish in Costa Rica which probably took about 35 minutes.

Roughly 30 minute fight for a 28# catfish on the red in 36' water. Bastard worked me over but I got him.

1 Hour and 35 minuets. 176 lb Yellowfin Tuna. 
Just knew I broke the 200lb that day. 
Oh, this was done on 50lb test tackle.

Had a guy fight a jack cravelle for 50 minutes on my boat before. Landed it on 10 lb test. I fought a sailfish out if galveston for 45 minutes and my buddy fought a blue marlin for 45 minutes.

Massive stingray in the surf on Last Island a few years ago.

3 hours on a marlin. About 500 lbs tagged and released. I've mated on marlin that took 5 hours. Brutal.

Probably about 30 minutes, a Jack on 12#.

About 40 minutes for a 135# tarpon. Felt like I just left the gym after. My arms were like noodles. Didn't help that we couldnt find a fighting belt for the first 80% of the fight.

~75 minutes on a 8' shark.

Bout an hour, tarpon weighing about 125lbs...

Hooked up on a 155lb yellowfin at beginning of first half of LSU vs Auburn the year Cam Newton beat LSU. Gaffed him at half. Probably 90 minutes. I was in shape at the time, but he kicked my arse pretty good.

~45 minutes on a 40# Yellowfin Tuna...... tail hooked
