Tallent88 Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 ok this is gonna sound like a tall tail but i have friends to vouch we where fishing over at Pocahontas state park the beaver pond not swift creek we had caught about nine my buddy catching one more then me of course i had to catch more fish so as the sun goes down i keep casting changing baits and tying to get another fish at this time my buddy is rushing me because we still have to walk up the trail to get back to the truck i literally said ok ok this is my last cast i promise! so i through my purple and silver 1/2 o boogie bait so i let it sink a little reeled a couple times and got the tap tap so i raised my poll felt the tension dropped the poll reeled the slack and bamm set the hook one problem it was an ultra light with 4 pound tess the line went the wrong way after i set the hook after about 5 minuts he got tired of running back and forth and jumping out of the water and headed right at me i finally got him in at about 10 min i pulled him ashore and i couldn't believe what i just caught not sure of the weight it was longer than 24 and not sure how many pounds no scale and not good at judging anyone have a clue where about it fits on the scale ? i hade a cheap measure tape maxed out at 24 still stoked not another feeling like catching a big one now im spoiled hate catching small fish now lol but here is a picture ;D tell me how much you think it weighed im curious im 6'4 300 pounds so take that into consideration Quote
