This picture was when I was between 13-14 years old. Largemouth Bass weight exactly 9.5 pounds and it is currently second place in New Hampshire behind 10.5 pound LM Bass record. Also, broken for youth record by several pounds. I forget what amount it is.

This is when I was very younger age when I caught those LM bass.

Here the picture from few years up to now. Striper bass was that I caught in Chatham, MA.

Atlantic Cod was caught several day after I had the hernia surgery. That's reason why I cannot pick up that monster cod.

Just Fishin', yeah, me too even i'm catching them.. I went there every summer since 7 years old. Nothing can beat that excitement when you is catching them. I missed the pain on arms when they hit lure really hard like train running different direction.

Ray, oh yeah, i heard many stories like that! only picture can prove it!

I'm curious what is your story is!

here is my story>

Last summer, I lost whole wire for fishing stripers and captain was totally at me because it is worth 50$ into water now. I told captain that it was big fish hit it. Captain didn't believe me at all. next drift, I caught 31 pound striper but somehow it has other wire line mess up on my line so captain thought it was his wire from pole that he just cast. Until he felt big snag on it and he knew it was fish on! Guess what he found about that wire?? it was actually my wire that I lost last drift. It was 37 pound striper bass! it was awesome day for me!

Those picture was actually post upper here. bottom one was 37 and second picture was 31 pound.

No, it was in mirror lake in white mountain region, NH.

I'm staying in uncle house at that day but unfortunately, my uncle sold that house several years ago. So that day was my first day of NH fishing and my last time too.
