Default why not to battle a 20# bft on an 8wt

Pic2: sort of smiling

That fish kicked the shortness out of the fat guy. Real bad too. Still, I landed it faster than the murphster landed his on a 12#. Maybe this year we'll teach bill how to use a spinning rod!

You mean rod butt in the armpit isn't good form? It's a testament to the G Loomis Pro Blue series though.

Swanny, Keep it up funny guy and I'll swamp you with my wake!!

I didn't keep a clock running but I'll challange you on that one. I was able to shoot pic's, video, almost busted a gut and I ate a sandwich by the time that fish was boated.

If I remeber correctly you uttered the words "This fish is kicking my F!**ing A**!! and swore that you'd never do that again!!

It's all in good fun!!

Later,


Murf

You're right murph. I'm full of %$it. But that doesn't mean I'm going to miss an opportunity to bust your balls a little That fish killed me and I wouldn't do it again with that little rod
