Hello Stan. 

Just over 60lbs on your watermelon anchovie bait head. Thanks very much for the dodger as well.  FYI I attach dodger directly

to down rigger ball with bait head dragging just behind it so your just

fighting the fish when they strike.  That's what I love about the wire on

your set up as it allows for perfect cripple roll without flasher/dodger on main

line.

Hello Stan ..... here is another  .... not quite as big but still a monster.

 

We fish out of Kitimat in the Douglas Channel/norther B.C.

 

Not unusual to get into 30's and 40's but much tougher to get into the 50+

range.

 

Can't say enough about your lure .... in the past we used anchovies in a

conventional holder and often you just couldn't get the roll right

particularly as I prefer the flasher off the downrigger.

 

All the best.

Don

We need some eggs from fish like this so we can restock the great lakes send some will pay for them

Wow Stan - Is that a fish or what? I know they used to get them on the Kenai that big but that is some fish!
