Greg fishes out of a tin boat in CT.Fish was weighed in with many there to witness. Talk about red gills are silly, if you have fished in the Back Eddy tournament the last two years you would know what a freezer burned fish looks like.Apparently Greg,who is a really big person,has not decided to pursue a world record and yes, he had some type of panic attack and left his own party with the fish in tow.I think,after reading of McReynolds travails, that he made a good decision.However,gone are endorsement deals,boats and any other freebies he would certainly garner for his considerable efforts.I know if I caught a World Record fish or even an IGFA class record it would be on a product with benefits,not a live eel.Welcome to tournament fishing...and the microscope that surrounds worthy accomplishments.
