It sure was! It would have been the first monster to break in the boat. I'll get her next time.

Fish grips are your friend....but you need to stop fibbing. There are no monsters in Grapevine...you must have been at Joe Pool.

I wonder what would have happen ed if you would have just put your bare hands in the fishes mouth and pulled her in that way ?I also wonder if you did that would she have tore your hands up in the process ?

Well, look at the bright side. I'll bet that's the last time you forget the net!

Nice fish!

Dont worry about it, win some you lose some. Keep at it and you'll catch so many that size you'll be happy when they come off at the boat! Less work! smile







I'm gonna miss her....

I believe you are lucky not to have grabbed that jaw. You would have lost a lot of flesh and maybe went for a swim.
