Someone went LARGE

As some of you know, Roy Leva grabbed the ring with a 51 end of last week, released to meet again when she is 60.

Congrats Dude!

I was very close by him and saw him do it. He had a 38 that morning too. I have a few pics but can't figure out how to post them from the Iphone. He is the fish whisperer. Was good again on Friday same spot in the typhoon. A few other members had 50's last week too via boats.

Paul, email the picture to yourself. Download to your computer and post. That's how I have done it.

Not many release truly large fish anymore. Excellent work!

Once I get home I can get them off the phone onto my computer and post that way but never have figured out how to put them on here from the phone when trying to post from the phone. For another time.
Jokingly I asked him for the fish to sell and he said he ready kept the 38 and was not going to kill that one. I told I would have been disappointed in him if he did say yes and to be honest I would not of took it. It revived pretty quick as he caught it about 3 feet from shore as he was about to pull the plug out of the water so fight was not too long. The Mack's were hugging the shoreline that day afraid to venture out to be engulfed.

you can open a photobucket account via your phone (free)
and then upload the picture to it . they allow 9 pics for a free account!
you need to be able to browse files on your phone so i downloaded a free file manager to browse my motox like i browse my desktop pc at home.

Wow! I thought he was in Florida? I guess that fish thought so too. It was rumored the canal was so slow at the beginning of the year because they heard he was coming back and got scared.
