Don I think I'm going to pay Kasey to fish with me and take pictures of everything I catch! He's very talented at taking pics.. and a damn good fisherman too.

i can't say that i've ever heard of THAT one, however.

just shows to go ya,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,length doan mean sheet w/o GIRTH!!
i think that for that reason i will continue to shoot for weight and NOT length. to your larger point~~

there is a HUGE difference between 26# and 36#,
NEVERMIND 40#'s,,,,,,,,,,,,,,that fish looks right on, for 26#.

and i would not question QL's scales as some have, here.
they are pricey, no doubt, but weight schisters; i think NOT!


notice the skinny tail section, how the torso actually tapers IN from the head, and the tail is not very broad, either.
please understand that i'm not picking on yer "pb", just trying to help it to make sense.

AGREED, relative to its length; that is one skinny mofo!
keep fishing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if that one's there, then its bigger sistah may be close by~~~

I'm not arguing it's weight or accusing QL of anything. It is what it is for what it's worth.. the drift before I lost an even bigger fish that I could barely stop and couldn't move.. after 20 minutes the hooks pulled... Either that was big sister..or little brother hooked in the arse!

i'm WITH you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

i know YOU didn't argue the weight, and it was prolly TIC before!

but, those guys are rather reputable and well established fixtures along their stretch of the Striper Coast.

the hooks pulled out of a NB darter? or they got pulled out of the fish? because either way that is an unfortunate and disappointing way to drop a fish. i don't mind so much when it's me, it SUUUX when it's tackle failure,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Nahh..Plugs fine.. Pulled out of the fish,, I was putting too much pressure on it...I knew it.. But I couldn't turn the thing out of the current...

BUMMMER, know the feeling; all TOO well!

Lol throw a C in front of the asey and we will call it even. Kind of funny I straightened a clip as well at the same time with a northbar.

This one makes the head look even bigger. The photo viewer kind of makes the pics wash out huh? I wanted to test this photo as well.

I didn't think you could make Tj's head any bigger after that fish. You are a Photog marvel.
