It all paid off - New personal best!
well, all the sleepless and fishless nights have finally paid off. I shattered my personal best this weekend with this 33 pound beauty. The fish went 41 inches and fat, but I was still shocked when the scale at surfland read 33 pounds.
here's the surfland pic, which made the fish look bigger than it was:

Way to go! Nice to see a fat one. Only skinny fish seem to eat my plugs. What'd you get it on?

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....
