Hard work pays off :: Nice Fish

Headhunter · 11-09-2005, 07:21 AM

Any pics I forwarded to Rizzo the fish were at least 40lbs. He has more to post with the biggest at 47 lbs. It has been a good year even though the Fall hasn't been great. Personally, I've had 6 fish fish over 40lbs; two were boat fish. I lost count of the fish from 25 to 39 lbs, I think it is somewhere around 40. Didn't give him those pics for the SLOB post. I personally think a slob is a 40+ lb fish. I guess a high 30's counts, don't you guys? Bob C.

No bob a high 30 is a rat................

Any fish is good, I will take a 35 any day along with a 40..have two 40s in the surf this year but without a doubt the most memorable nights were the 20s and 30s especially when they come one after the other........ Last night was great with 3 in the high 30s...there all good.. you know as well as I that 40s dont happen everynight-or-every season. There all nice, and they all "count"

Congrats on a good season!

Paul, nice job. I'm happy to hear someone had a good season! I bet a couple of those came from where we ran into each other this year. Just stay off my river...

#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& they all are good. I like to hook up anything 20 lb + it is what I live to fish for! SLOBS on the other hand to me are 38 + lb fish."HEADHUNTER STYLE" is 20 lbs = decent fish, 25 lbs = good fish, 30 lb = thats a nice fish man, 35 lb = thats a real nice fish ( or if u must slob, but not really), 38 lb and above = S L O B, 45lb and above = R E A L S L O B!

Interesting theory - so what makes 38LB's the threshold between real nice fish versus slob. Why not 37 LB's or 39 LB's?

So I guess somewhere between 30 LB's and 35 LB's the fish goes from nice fish to "real" nice fish - or to some kind of slob, but not really. But 3 more LB's at 38 LB's and it is a "real" slob?

And 20 LB's is only a decent fish. What is a teen fish then?

I see - sorry but give me a freakin break. They are all big fish & anyone should be happy to get one of them - especially the way things are progressing with the stocks...

But I can honestly say, this past week I have caught as many bass on the sluggo as I have caught on the live eels, including a 28lb fish friday night. So , they have peaked my interest.
