I've seen that pic before... It looks like the fish was folded in half, and then unfolded again for the pic! Almost looks flat! The look on his face says it all!!!
no that is one over 60 I'm pretty sure. Joe is the president of the 5' 7" and under fishing club, which I am a member. I had the pleasure of going out in that boat with Joe at night this summer in those waters and had a blast. I look forward to finagling a trip again next year. Joe is a fantastic host and fisherman.

That's probably because you forgot what stripers look like.
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
Doesn't look THAT huge, considering that in the photo it looks like he's standing back about 3-4 feet from the fish.
With the camera close to the fish it would appear that it was a really huge fish.
Kind of like ALL those photos of people hold their "big catches" out a full arm's length in front of themselves to make the fish look larger than it really was.

that would be me...I'm just a little older in the vidio...
very cool, that was the section of the film I enjoyed the most because its similar to how I fish w/eels at night. I knew you were a celeb, but now I know how big.
Not sure if you are refering to me in this Quote. Hi Mr T!
However if you are, hello John.
I am back on the water, god willing next year.
Spent all summer working on the machine.
I have been off the water for the last three years.
Later, L.
You are only as good as the person who’s driving the boat! By the way, the Devil drives my boat!
