There was a short run of more 50+ fish that year than most people had ever seen before or since. Tony's fish came after that blitz had quieted down--first week of November, I think. I know he was into cod that night as well as bass

It was also the same year as the famous "Columbus Day Blitz" on the Vineyard, where a 50 didn't even get you on the daily Derby board, let alone the Grand

Mike those are the stories that make you feel warm inside. The stuff you only wish you could try to accomplish but are affraid to at the same time because your not sure you could get it in?? All I can say is WOW. great stuff.
