What Species of fish?
a 6 lb. Smallmouth is a slob
a 10 lb. Largemouth is a slob
a 20 lb. Bluefish is a slob
a 40 lb. Striper is a slob
a 100 lb. Tuna is a slob
a 225 lb Anglah is a Slob (at least thats what my wife says)  |

"LARGE" ?????? WHO-T-F cares? I mean, I caught a bunch of 20 to 25 pound fish in the last couple weeks (on plugs  ) from shore and my skiff and they all fought great, cartwheeling through the sky and rolling and thrashing just after the hook-up ( my mentor Art Crago said to me once after losing a good fish after a tremendous but brief hook-up on a Danny"You got what you wanted out that fish right? So don't be disapointed" he was right, as usual)
I have caught a lot of "large" fish in my time but the to me the mark of a good fish is not the scale weight but the fight and twenty to 35 pound fish 99% percent of the time will fight the pants off of a 45 pounder.
Thats the large for me, the fight not the fat. |
Why even try.........

IMO fish over 35 lbs start to take a different shape.They gain quite a bit in the girth department.Big shoulders..This run of 35-40 lbers all seem similar..Bullet heads like tuna...
When they get over 4o they seem different.Like from a different strain,Year class...Longer not as girthy..To me it's seems weird.Anyone else notice this..
I would call anything over 35 large..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..

Very good list accept the 75lb tuna
The REAL tuna guys call us baby killers catching those!
73 inches is a legal giant, but 400lb plus is considered large ! |
