61.5 lb. Bass on a HAB'S

There was a 61.5 lb. Bass caught on a HAB'S Jointed NEEDLEFISH in June photo will be released then Posted..........

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

congradulations to the builder and the angler. i happen to know who caught the beauty and he deserves ever pound of that fish. he also knows the best bakery and pastry shops and can get a tire back on the rim in the pouring rain.

Congrats to both the angler and manufacturer, Mr. Habs sure makes productive plugs. That would be 2 60's in three years if I am not mistaken. That jointed needle is the bomb!

When are we gonna see some pics??

Congrats John Habs and congrats tc also.

please post a pic of the plug if you can also.

that is a mighty fine bass on a plug
