61.44lb Montauk Surf
My friend Mike stopped by the jobsite with this 61.44lb 54"long 30"girth slob that he took on a Beachmaster yellow darter in the Montauk surf Monday night.. Helluva fish of a lifetime Congrats Mike..

Mike also released a 55 2 weeks earlier because he had a 38 on the beach good karma I'd say.. This 61 will look nice w/the 52 he got 4 yrs ago on the wall... I know I have fish envy just glad I was able to see it and lift it myself HEAVY.. I now have one of it's scales taped to my rod, liitle luck never hurt...

As someone who's done professional photo manipulation I can say the picture looks pretty real

First photo looks like a different fish than the second. stresses the importance of camera angles I guess...

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

Awesome! To catch that out of the surf is the ultimate angling feat for east coast surfcasting.

Beautiful fish. He will enjoy that mount and the memories till he is very old. I can't imagine what it will cost nowadays. It was 12 bucks and inch in 1990.

He released a 55 #er because he had a 38 #er on the beach. That 61 #er is somebodys way of saying I love you.
