Nice fish, AdamR - nice fat fifty....

Hell, I got a little wood goin' myself after seein' that one...
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

That is awesome Adam
Congratulations on that milestone and getting it on your own needle is quite the bonus
You fish hard and you earned it.
