Sometime the way he writes it doesnt seem so

Alpha - What a long...   


This is from the gallery - at 50y/o

[TadMC]

Ehhh hes not that old,

I was thinking 60's

[annguyen1981]

To some of us, he's already an old fart.

j/k OMW.  You put laughter in our life.  Even if you don't intend to.

I think he'd be proud of me for reeling in that fish

Nice fish!

Ling      0


All those that witnessed agreed, it was a fair fight, and within the proper weight class.

If you're parting that thing out, I get dibs on the tail fins.
Will those gills fit on my sea bass?

yeah thats a nice fish.  I love to go deep sea fishing for Mahi-Mahi (aka Dolphin fish), Tuna and wahu.  And when you are fishing for big fish like that there is a reason to use 300llb test line, try bringin' in a huge tuna on something lighter than that and you are going to run a good chance of losing it.

Yeah, at the same location we caught the ling we pulled in dozens of Chicken Dolphins (Mahi-Mahi) and triple tails. Drop in bait, pull out fish.

I wouldn't mind reelin' in a tuna. They look like they'd put up a decent fight.

Decent is an understatement.  I fought a 184 lb Tune for three and a half hours.  They are tireless and man i will tell you i was really really sore the next day.  Wouldn't trade that experience for anything though.  Same trip we brough back a little shy of 200 lbs of mahi-mahi, a smaller tuna and a 4 foot brown shark, a couple wahu.  It was a great day.

Nice catch! This thread just reminded me that I really need to get out and go fly fishing this summer.

[Stephen072774]

Cool, nice catch alpha...  I know I showed photos of the sail I caught last year, I just got the mount a couple of months ago. 

[Alphamazing]

Daaamn that's awesome! I would love to catch one of those.

That's one purdy fishie!!!
