Man that sucks!!

Nick still has the biggest fish from what I hear. 74" He just got new Alutecnos 50's for the tournament, I think he got it on his new reel.

Talked to friend Willy they were just going to reset, I think they were 2 for something had a big one swim through the light that didnt eat

Barry and them have two or three fish in the boat, didnt get that report first hand

Talked to Tj......they were 3 for something, and a big hammerhead

From what I hear bite has slowed down, lots of small fish!!!

Havent heard from Johnny "Rockets", Zach or Armen yet out of my loop of people.....

Meanwhile..........I have been sitting here studying because I have Exam on Wednesday and the &%@#($ weather $#@%#%$ed me. I am questioning my priorities right now

I hope Nick wins, he deserves it.

T.I.P · 12-03-2006, 01:27 AM

so the bite was pretty early then huh?

Thanks Johnny! You've taught me so much about those stupid long bill catfish you don't even know! Your're da man! You wouldn't have taken me out all summer, we wouldn't have caught that fish.
No win, but we get some money back

.

The alutecnos 50's are the only way to go...wow! Compare them on to a tiagra or avet on a big fish and you'll see why they cost a few $ more.

Congrats to all the other winners and those who an epic night! The bite was off the wall real early then shut down. We had one bite... and it was a good one! Fished the same waters as Emijess/Tuna devil and Flatsfish who were 2 for 8 and 3-5

. I'm happy though!
Holy crap! I need sleep! I got up at this time yesterday and started rigging baits and loading the boat!

Thanks again to everyone who has taught me and helped in the sport!!! And to Drew for putting this evet together

Square Grouper · 12-03-2006, 11:02 AM

Hats off to those that weighed fish and awesome job NickC, way to keep it Gangsta.

Ifished with Zack & Tim on the F/V Headfirst II and while we had plenty of action, the fished were all the wrong size. 4 for 5 Zack, four four five!

Remember the fish on the bow I reeled to the snap and Dad just stared at the leader?
