Thanks Steve, but I know a colored lady that makes some killer fish head soup. I think she will need a larger pot this time. (Hee, Hee)Jumptrout51 wrote:I've got a fish chowder recipe fpr you for the left overs and trimmings.

Re: Personal Best for Me.
No Eddie it was a lot more to the north. And yes even the electric reel was having a hard time getting that bad boy up. I would take 5 or 6 inches and then he would take 2 feet back. I had to stop every time the reel stopped bringing in line and let the rod wear him out. We had 4 lines in the water at the time he hit and by the time he was gaffed he had tangled up all the lines and even the float marker. What a mess, but man was it worth it. My thumb was wore out when we got him aboard, Hee, Hee.EddieJoe wrote:Chuck, that's a monster fish. Middle Grounds? Even with an electric reel that must have been one heck of a fight.
