SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

====================

Had my brother up for his annual fishing trip, what a blast. The rods were going all day, three days in a row. We had doubles on one rod four times, and had all four rods out of the water several times. Glad we can only run two rods each, it might have worn us out otherwise.

The best was the big Atantic we caught as part of a triple at noon on Friday after being blown off at 9am with a wicked SE blow that blew the wiper off the boat on the way in.

Nice Dave. That's a sweet atlantic. No big kings yet? They seem to be scarce.

Very nice Atlantic. I would not be suprised if the state reocrd falls in the next year or 2. Is it going on the wall?

[holy mackerel]

I just so happens the state record was caught on my boat in 1997. I was caught by a co-workers 12 year old son, and weighed 24# 15oz.
