I took that picture of Goose along with a bunch more of him and those fish. We tortured him by making him hold them up while we clicked away on the dock the day after as was stated, he was on his way to the cleaning station. I think Ross was nice enough to him by bringing him an ice cream.
So I staged the picture, what's the point?
I thought it would make a good shot as he walked down the dock.
Goose is a landscaper and works his butt off to provide for his family and to give him time to fish. He is one hard working enthusiastic person, I am glad to know him as a friend. The day he got those fish was a Friday after working a long day and week, he had to pack the boat and bring 2 friends and all their stuff over that day around 6:00, they walked their stuff to the club, then set out to fish planning to boat to a spot then fish from shore but that changed as they all didn't have wetsuits and had to stay on the boat. Eels tossed towards shore is what got those fish and the biggest had a head so huge, I have never seen anything like it. 50" long I think and it weighed 48 pounds. People stage/pose with fish all the time, I just want to know what is your point? Do you not feel it is worthy of being on the front page?

I think most members here are happy for Tony and his catch. And I can assure you , none of that fish was wasted. I hope you get your 50 next time Tony

and thanks for the invite today but as you know now, my back is not up to it.

	The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely. 1984 was a warning, not a guidebook! It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
