Roy-

thanks for posting this... Most of us are still looking for our first 50.. and I hope mine comes in the next few years as we are not getting any younger... I love the fact that Gary got his on his Pikie under some very challenging conditions at a very special spot.

Nice PB and even sweeter taste being on your own plug! Big bait:big fish, think I heard that somewhere.....maybe from Gray?

Awesome fish! It makes that big plug look small.

Own plug, own design, toughest conditions, great fish.
It doesn't get any better than that.
Fantastic achievement.

According to Zeebaas- he caught it on a new 2.5 lefty version that just came out.

I guess they work- congratulations again . Gary.

Hope the reel catches another 50 for you.
