Thumbs up

45! Even with my imagination running wild the one I lost won't do that! Maybe 25. Landed maybe 10.

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.

Had one at the race last July measured 47 inches long before release. Estimated low 40 pound range, only fish that night. Ray "Eelpunt" Goeke needle.

Why even try.........

Never caught one on a needle. Kind of hard when you don't fish them. Well I shouldn't say never have just been many years since I have used them. I am going to try and change that this year. Paul

50 pounder -- 50 pound lobster pot! Darn buoy was way too close to the rocks this past weekend. I wanted to swim out and rescue my plug, but I wasn't quite dressed for it, and besides, RRC wouldn't let me. Last time I underestimate how far I can cast.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

39" on a bugger electric blue last year. Now that I have some BM needles, my 50 can't be far behind
