I caught my 1st Permit on June 5th in Big Pine Key. My personal captain put me on this beautiful fish while site fishing in 3 feet of water. I am ready to go back anytime!
My 41" 37 lb Flathead.
I was in a local catfish tournament here in Columbia, Pa.I was using light tackle to make it a challenge. Early into the morning I hook up with this monster with my little 5'lite action Ugly Stik rod with Okuma reel with 8 lb test. Luckily my gear held up to the task and after a half hour battle I was able to land this 41" 37 lb Flathead to win the tourney.
Carp as big as my kid!!
My friend and I and our two boys were ice fishing on the Susquehanna River by Nichols NY in February. We were using tip ups and it was brutal cold. One of our flags went up and this monster came up. It was caught on 10lb ice line, pulled in by hand. Took over 20 minutes and a lot of chiseling of the ice. 29.5" girth, 48" long, 42LBS. What a monster! We all took turns working the hand line.
Ever see one of these in your smallmouth creek?
I found this in during a biology lab in a creek that I fish. Long story, but the moral is to keep your eyes open when you got a line in the water.
Personal Best Rockfish
Caught the last day of the '09 Catch and Release season in the northern tip of the Chesapeake Bay. My friend Dan and I headed out in the fog and rain to squeeze in one last trip. She hit mid-morning after a scattered bite of 5-10 lb. fish. It took 20 mins. to bring her boatside with 14lb. Fireline. We estimate 48-50" and around 50 lbs. After a quick photo she was safely released.

BIG Turtle
Caught this prehistoric beast on a trotline. Biggest turtle I have ever seen. I know other guys have probably seen 'em bigger but I was amazed by this monster. He pegged out my fish scales that go up to 50 lbs. Once he regained his strength we released him unharmed except for a sore mouth.
