For the record, my second fish was on one of Tagger's needles. Only 34".
Sadly, I dropped a slightly better fish on a Habs needle clone. Loosened my drag and pussied around landing it because I sorely wanted to enter a fish on something to do with Habs. Bumped it into a rock beaching it and off she went.
Sauerkraut also dropped a serious fish on a needle (his cheapass hook straightened) that likely would have rivaled the largest Josh posted so they were there to be had on plugs until the moon got too high.
