Beautiful Fish !!


How long to land and how far up the river were you ?
You know, we always called each other goodfellas. Like, you'd say to somebody: "You're gonna like this guy; he's all right. He's a goodfella. He's one of us." You understand? We were goodfellas, wiseguys.

And here I spend hours in the rain on the water targeting that prehistoric beast and you whack him with what?

Nice fish!

Believe it or not it only took about 15 mins to land it! Hooked it pulled anchor and ripped down river got it next to the boat, No net ofcourse.. So me and my friend scooped it up with our arms.. Crazy day.

It took us about a 1/4 mile down river.
