Thanks! Photo credit goes to my buddy Kierran Broatch. Kierran is an excellent photographer, story teller and all around fisherman I know. He writes for On The Water magazine, did their interview and pics of the world record srtiper caught last year. Check out his blog, it's great:

[QUOTE=catfishonthelake]I caught a 200-pound sand tiger and battled a 250-pound blue marlin, but below is what I consider my best catch of the year...and maybe my life. February 24th, 2012 in a rented boat from Dow's on Lake Hopatcong in at 20+mph NW wind with water temps hovering in the mid-30's. Found, hooked and landed all by myself. Put my camera on my cooler on the front bench seat, set the timer, took the big girl out of the net for the pic and then let her go alive. I was more concerned with getting her back in the water than getting a measurement, but almost everyone I've asked in Muskie Inc. and anyone I consider to be a good musky fisherman has told me this was a 50-inch fish. Absolutely the fish of a lifetime.

Didn't get a SMB over 3.5lbs (my pb) so no pictures of that. But I did get my first 5lb LMB, and then 2 weeks later, my second. I also got my best (for the time being) hybrid at spruce. Hoping to break all of these records and finally get a 4lb+ SMB eventually.
