GIANT!

Got a call from a buddy begging for Sea Pups. Apparently Charlie has been stealing them just as fast as the guys can tie them on.
On short notice I go out for a few hours on Saturday looking to sink some Owner Hooks into something. No love and we ran out of time as I had to be back for 7:00pm. I left the guys with a handfull of plugs to hold them over until I see them again.

I knew the guys were going out on Sunday, but I decided to stay home, fill some orders and paint some wood.

Murphy's Law. When you think you should stay home and get some things done, ignore it and go! Just give in to the tuna calling you day and night and accept you have a disease.

They only hooked one yesterday, but it was a very worthy catch. Fish taped out at 77" and was just a hair over 300lbs.

The Sea Pup Strikes AGAIN!

Very nice fish. I have two of them in my arsenal. Did they replace the stock hooks?

Hooks were Owner St-66

Nice Mike Congrats!

I think at this point pups have taken more CC Bay Tuna than any other topwater.

That sure is a nice fish. Kudos to the angler.
