Yeah....my brother Jeff (was visiting from Idaho) caught it on my boat. Funny...he called the local paper....seeing they had run a BIG story the week before about a "GREAT WHITE SHARK" seen in the mouth of the Mack. Figured if they printed that story..

Anyways...of course he fails to mention my name....or my boat name - got fish?....or that he was using my rod...my reel..my line..my lure...my GAS.



I attached a photo. We got it close enough for a picture, but didn't know if you could take them out of the water (since they are endangered). I attempted to use the Boga grip, but it wouldn't grip on it's soft sucker lips. I didn't want to try to put a rope around the tail, again fearing I'd hurt the fish.

Glad we got it to the boat and snapped a photo. If it had broken off, we would have thought we lost a HUGE striper.
