baldwin your killin me :lm:

Just think. That fish was born in 1977 or there about.

Paul was that in one of the decline years?

:eyes:.

Now that's a fish:wiggle:

5/0

she was only 65 when i released her last year. :hihi:

What a beautiful sight !
Look at the size of the frigin head !!!

Wowsa..........

Oh my!What a fish!
Perhaps this should be the begining of another thread but I will pose the question here.
If you caught that fish in the surf and didn't have a massive heart attack when you turned on your light,and was able to land it.Would you keep it or release it?

Heres a Image of that Bass. KEEP IT!

I would too.I'm just not sure I would survive turning on the light!

Well if I could I would try to release it,
I would crap my pants though

Someone caught my fish!!!!

Indeed it was Scott. 77 was pretty much at the beginning of the dramatic down turn in the population. From then until 90 or 91 we sucked wind trying to find fish in the surf. the boat guys still had some but the stocks were really depleted.

woooooooooooooooow.

heres a good question.. how many time do you think that thing had been caught before? it's amazing to think all those schoolies we toss back have a chance at becoming that.

That thing is a monster...I wonder if that fish was traveling in the company of smaller fish or if it was in a school of similarly sized behemoths. Wow. That is some fish!

Wowza! Was it taken on one of yor lures Scott? If so way to go!

Thats a fish...Thats my holy grail right there.
If I could land that from the M surf I would hang my gear up..
No BS..
I'm gotta change my line..
Someone said it was in the top ten.I did not think that was right..

NO was NOT taken on one of mine Steve. Didn't say that I just posted it was caught.

I would send her back if I could revive it. What the heck would I do with a fish that size :usd: ? Even if I didn't have a camera :behead:

Caught off the boat Top Hook on bait.

its nice to see a big fish like that in this era of 40lb'ers

Would have been cool if it was. I'd hump that fish after landing it then have it mounted so I could just sit there and stare at it.
