Giant (almost)

Neighbor said his friend hooked up yesterday using a pogie and fought for almost 10hrs a fish that they saw once, easily over 8ft. Fish finally wore them out and broke off about 3:30PM by going under/around the boat.

Another piece of info: during the fight they moved 11 miles.

2nd hand hearsay? I trust my source...????

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

takes awhile to get one in on an abu 7000 . stories like that seem to grow everytime the story gets told. nobody ever looses a foulhooked schoolie, it's always a monster whatever the species

my 1st wife didn't like me fishing so much
