man this guy has to post the same pic on two different threads to get face time...weak. It would havebeen a nice red, but you posted it twice so it pretty much sucks, and I wish you many wind knots on Saturday.

They are actually called "casting knots" and I had two in my leader when I hauled that pig in... you really have to trust your tippet material when fishing!!

Noles, I am looking, been to two interviews, getting two offers this week, so to celebrate, I went fishing, and will do so again this afternoon...

Nice fish Tom!
Your grip on that fish is a little loose though.
Fish look bigger if you squeeze it till snot bubbles come out of there face hole. Besides, a fish that big should be held vertically with bogga grips by one hand while giving the super cool thumbs up with the other hand! :P

looks like a spinning rod in the picture. How big was the shrimp you were using? Hand picked? Or 1/2 a mullet? Nice fish!

Starting to miss that East Side fishing where even someone like you can get a fish like that. Way to take advantage of the rain bite. Can we get a length and rod weight? Nice feesh.

Very good eye there mr. HB... but alas, the blank in question was going to be doomed to a life of chucking gulp and shrimp was saved from the fires of hell by brother yohan, and shown the ways of fly fishin...
