just read this the first time, this is one of the funniest stories I have read. you should send this in to Florida Sportsman's "An Outdoor Happening" in the back of the mag. They will publish for sure.

Dbplug, have you learned the fine art of swinging a gaffed fish right into the box? I learned this the hard way in 5-7 seas off Ft Lauderdale when I gaffed a smoker king into my friends boat.

Inspired by JT's recent pictures, I guess it's about that time to bring this one back. :thumbup:

Hey Bman, As previously suggested, any interest in creating a "Hall of Fame archive" for threads like this?

I love that story, I searched for it and found it the other night. I read it to my friend after having a few beers. We laughed and laughed. Thanks for sharing.
