Lost what would have been my biggest fish ever, today. Right at the side of the boat. Gaff in hand. Pop. Hook comes out. 20 minute battle. Knew it was a good one before I got a look at her.... beautiful pink and purple as I was bringing her boatside....

A couple fish and macks later, I'm bringing in a 29" fish, and what do I see following right beneath it? What I have to believe was the fish I lost. Better look this time... Had to be over 50".

So tomorrow, despite the Pats game, I will be back there for the outgoing.... hopefully with live macks again.
