Went to Decker lake with Chris (Buffaloman Chris) and Ben (Cyprinus), was a long drive, 3 hours for each of us but I had been wanting to hit this place again for a long time, I had one goal, that was to break my pb buff, we got there at 6:30 and fished hard all day but just caught kitties, finally midday I got a decent run, the fish took a hard run but my drag was not set and snapped me off grrrr, then more blanking happened as the sun disappeared then finally I got another run and the fight was on, multiple hard runs as my heart pounded as Chris heckled me with "it's just a catfish " lol, finally I bring it within nets reach and Bens alarm goes off , we get mine in the net and my jaw dropped, this fish was a damn swimming elephant lol, I was telling Chris it's gotta be a mid 40 but when he lifted it "barely" he said more like a 50, well he was spot on and it weighed in at a even 53 lbs, Ben's came in at 35 I believe.

Well done sir. A fish like that makes the trip worth all the effort and time invested.
