Nevermind me,I can't catch a cold this year...but I did see Iron MIke's 60 lb striper caught on a blue/white 3 oz .Habs. WOW Had scales the size of scup!

tattoobob 07-11-2005 06:13 PM

I just started using needles this year and my biggest is 16.5 pounds

Backbeach Jake 07-11-2005 06:19 PM

45! Even with my imagination running wild the one I lost won't do that! Maybe 25. Landed maybe 10.

BrianS 07-11-2005 06:22 PM

ProfessorM 07-11-2005 09:47 PM

Never caught one on a needle. Kind of hard when you don't fish them. Well I shouldn't say never have just been many years since I have used them. I am going to try and change that this year. Paul

Bass Babe 07-11-2005 10:19 PM

50 pounder -- 50 pound lobster pot! :scream2: Darn buoy was way too close to the rocks this past weekend. I wanted to swim out and rescue my plug, but I wasn't quite dressed for it, and besides, RRC wouldn't let me. Last time I underestimate how far I can cast.

bassmaster 07-11-2005 10:21 PM

ouch

Clogston29 07-12-2005 07:11 AM

39" on a bugger electric blue last year. Now that I have some BM needles, my 50 can't be far behind :happy: :happy: :happy:
