All Time Favorite Fishing Picture

I know this has been done before, but thought it would be nice to do it again. Post your all time favorite fishing picture with a brief description.

All three are nice fish, but we caught the smaller two first and decided to box them. Later, we were on triples the size of the fish on the right but at the time the regs were 1 fish per person. Actually, in retrospect, I'm glad we didn't kill more of the "big girls." This is from 2001. That's me on the left and MAKAI in the middle.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Favorite one I've taken came a few weeks ago, on a CC BFT trip. Got this shot of my buddy with the lip gaff, and everything came together well... angles, lighting, etc etc. Plus it makes a 69" fish look even bigger

I wish I knew photoshop to perk it up, but it looks good as-is.

I'll say. That is a first rate photo that would make a great magazine cover. Nice eye.

my all time favorite isnt mine, it is the one of Stan Gibbs dragging 2 big bass off the dunes, with the ocean in the background. It was hanging at the striper cup last year but i guess you cant get any prints of it

Hey bloo..I understand your confusion. For the record, I was really just kidding around with that comment. I had no idea how much controversy came of it until a friend text messaged me about it since I hadn't been on the site in a while. I've taken a lot of bass in my day and don't have any issue l with it at all. I think at the time it was both impressive and sad to see such a monster majestic fish hanging there. I'd have kept it too though (I guess).
