Right on Dude! That's the stuff. Can you going to stop fishing now?

Dave,
Congrats, nice fish! So now tell us, what did it weigh?

Lucky son-of-a-gun. Congratulations. All that skill paid off. Say, now that you have reached the pinnacle of striper fishing, you looking to unload all your gear? :btu:

Thank you all for the kind words. I think my next goal is to take a 40# on the long rod. I always said that if and when I get a 50# fronm the place i caught this one, I would move on to some new kinda fishing, and now I gotta uphold that promise I made to my self.

So where'd you get it? Was it in Mass.??:confused: I'm dyin' to hear the play by play of this great battle.:drool:

Great fish!! Congrats! Is that a Jersey fish? You don't have to tell us the spot...just the State!

Dave congrats you deserve it. Hopefully you will make the next RI leg.

Oh I'll be there, would'nt dream of missing it. Matter of fact, I might be up next weekend for a little walk to the promised land. I need to catch a fish on a needle baaaaadly, bunkers are fun, specially when your gettin 10 fish over 25# a night, but after a while ya get this weird feelin' that ya smell kinda funny:think:.
