    Good point Chris, but some days your the Dog, some days your the Hydrant.

    You're not allowed.

    I understand why the need for spin gear, but pretty soon this batch of fish is going to outgrow it!!!

    True enough but by within a few short seasons the same fish will out grow a 50W as well.

    That is a hell of a catch on spinnning gear. Both luck and skill are needed to land a fish that size after a long battle like that..

    congrats Jr. your haveing a hellova season..

    Good.
    I'll invite myself next season and there will be much back slapping and no political talk!

    Just send them down here... we can't touch them unless they are 72"... not many of those off RI right now...
