Talking Well here is my first 20 pounder!!!!!

Well here it is after 15 years of fishing i caught my first fish over 30 inches. It weighed in @ a even 20 pounds and measured 38 inches. I caught him Monday night ( 9/15/02)from shore using a lure (a big mack) he really got my heart raceing ! He had 3 pretty good size lobsters in his belly i thought that was pretty cool . Now i hope it wont take me another 15 years before I land my first 30 pounder!!!!!!!! I will still take what i can get till that time comes.......

excellent job - now they will start flowing like water, you'll see! Good Luck on the 30, I guess word of day is "persistence" or "perserverance" maybe 2 words of day....
