i don't eat fish. i just love to catch em.
this little guy went swimming on back.. and i nearly went with it.. said rocks were brutal, gott a couple cuts to prove it. really shouldn't have been out on them.

it kind of bugs me that after i got home and did some comparisons and measuring it didnt hit the 36 mark. waaaay off actually. i was all amped up that i had got to my first goal after over ten years trying. and to have it come on a plug. i was so amped up. oh well i'll get it tomorrow night i'm sure. if i can find another of those needles. so far i can't find any in that color. . i know if i didnt take that dive on the rocks though that second fish easily would have surpassed the 36" mark. heck it could have even been weighable for the cup. cause that one felt huge. and it was taking line like it owned it. (not fast like a blue, but my reel wasnt gonna stop it)

it feels good to be excited about fishing again though! i was really losing steam hard after such horrible success all summer.
