Congrats Dave... enjoy the moment and the memory. Don't second guess the release - someone that fishes as hard and smart as you will get another chance or two.

The other sock is missing because its what pushed the fish over 50. Just kidding, obviously. Great catch Dave.

Nebe & Josh you guys are hilarious!!

Motox there were two mostly digested fish, looked like scup or bunker and it looked like some small squid pieces too, but everything was very well digested, the fish were just bones.

Nice fish Dave...hard work pays off...you def deserve it....feel not bad about harvesting the fish of a lifetime...releasing 50's isn't the answer...releasing 20s and 30s is!!!!!

I was kind of holding off on that because I, I don't know, I guess I don't want to make a big show out of it

Maybe I'll get the itch tonight and put it down on paper.

I throw plugs all the time, but when the situation calls for eels... guess who's getting a hook stuck through their head?
