"silly face in photo-itus". :laughs: fishweewee 01-31-2005, 04:55 PM Niiiice!

"silly face in photo-itus". :laughs: Actually Toby, that's a good picture of me :p I had been at the rail for 27 hours straight when that fish hit at sunrise on Wednesday morning - I think I'm going to save that one for when Bassmaster posts one of his "I'm Junk" threads. Slingah - fight was awesome - about 30 minutes. Got her to the top twice only to see her power back to the bottom (130') finally got her to the gaff on the third attempt. The fish kicked my a$$ - despite the adrenaline rush I slept the entire 6 hour steam back to the dock :sleeps: Raider Ronnie 01-31-2005, 05:05 PM NICE FISH!!! Was it the biggest fish caught for the day? Those grouper can get pretty big!!! Saltheart 01-31-2005, 05:46 PM Nice Fish. You earned the nap on the way home! :) cheferson 01-31-2005, 05:48 PM nice fish!!! RIROCKHOUND 01-31-2005, 05:50 PM Nice... should be doing some of that soon.. you havent felt a hit till you nail a 20lb grouper on the troll.... Slipknot 01-31-2005, 06:04 PM You MADMAN you :btu: That must be one strong and powerful fish to take you back to the bottom twice :eek: Good job. My 60 came from Florida also, an amberjack on 20 lb line with a short boatrod on a wreck off Stuart a few years ago late April. Then I beat it with a 70 lb tarpon that kicked my butt down in the Keys.
