Anyone know where he's weighing his fish? After seeing this and the picture of his 55# I know I've been going to the wrong scale!

45" to 46" maximum I'd say, and nowhere near 55 pounds, not even 40 if you ask me, gut ain't big enough or too hard to tell from picture.

how does anyone hold a 55 pound anything out that far from their body for a picture?

is this the point you are making?
who is that? I know it's not you

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

What are you trying to say? Obviously there is no way that fish is 55lb...

Are you just trying to rile people up? Troll? Bored?

What's the deal??

you know CH you are a respected bass fisherman, but if you are trying to throw stones at another fisherman in the OTW tournament, make a frigging accusation, don't pussyfoot around trying to "see what others" think... otherwise it looks like sour grapes about the guy who is poised to win the Angler of the year for OTW





** caveat, I have no frigging clue who this Greg person is. this thread is just internet crap and furthers my point why I don't enter tournaments like this, it really brings out the worst in a lot of otherwise nice, respectable anglers**

It looks like sour grapes due to the possibility Myerson's alleged 68 or 69 pounder may knock off the 67# fish caught from CH's boat for striper of the year or other bragging rights..can't be a coincidence this post was started...I can't think of any other reason unless these guys simply dislike each other...

Face it, there's probably more super sized fish being recorded this year than at any time since the late 70's-early 80's.

There's been double digit numbers of 60# plus fish taken that I know of, and perhaps many more off the radar. What this means is there's(obviously) a large availability of real big fish, which means many people will be landing and recording them(in addition to CH).

This(big fish glut) doesn't lessen anyone's accomplishments or necessitate cheap shots via internet postings....you still have to get out there and put the effort in...there's obviously many people able and willing to do it.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
