Monster cod
 

I was reading on another board about some big cod being caught on the American Classic a few days ago (Walsh's deep sea fishing of Lynn Ma. )
A few caught in the 30lb
One 66lbs
And a monster 78LB :blush:

Yikes

Geez.. I would just like to see a 78lb codfish. You would need an awful lot of beans to go with that many fishcakes.

These 2 fish are gutted in the pics so they don't show just how big they were!

these were from a few seasons ago. my scale only went to 60#. we guessed they were around 80#. both on bait

must be something to this regulating thing.How long do you think you can sweep the oceans clean and not hurt any species.

Years ago, big cod were not uncommon. It's nice to see them again.

They catch a big spawners every year up here. All the partyboats target them when they come inshore. quite a few over 50-60 lbs.
