That was 30 years ago.
Guy's name was Frank Machado and he caught it on a 4 oz Stan Gibbs Popper. The Gibbs display at the shows has a picture of the guy and the fish.

Can I mention where it was caught back in the late 1950s without the spot police getting their panties in a wad--naw, just too risky.

You guys bitching need to learn how to fish nights and fish jigs.
