One of the best Bluefin trips I was on. We caught them good and had bigger fish mixed in. Here's a pic of one I caught and the one that got away after a 75 minute fight.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxaGUtIWTxo

First and foremost, thank you again for another fine give away! This is AWESOME!!!

Went fishing for Smallmouth Bass this past wednesday. So I'm out on the river catching a bunch of small fish and just happy that I'm catching something. All of a sudden I see BIG SMALLIE cruising the shoreline so I get out of the water and go up on this small cliff too get a better look at her, she's BIG for a river Smallie. The cliff I'm standing on is about 8 feet high over the water. I try like hell to catch this fish but she doesn't want anything I'm offering. Finally after throwing one of my least favorite lures on, I hook the BEAST. HAHAHA, but how am I going to land the fish standing on top of the cliff? Alrighty then, into the water I go. Yup, I slid down this cliff ripping a hole in my waders, jeans and boxers just to get this fish to shore. After landing the fish I realized my backside felt a little damp, hmmmmmmmmm!!! Well, I managed to take a nice chunk out of my backside during this fishing fiasco. Funny thing is I didn't feel a thing, adrenaline and excitement had taken over. Anything to land the fish safely and return her back to her home. My waders are repairable, jeans and boxers are in the trash. My backside was sore for 2 days and it's still bothersome if I sit a certain way. LOL!!!! That's my story of the week and I'm sticking with it! Not sure if this is a funny story but I was laughing all day just thinking about how I heaved myself off a small cliff for a fish. That's passion for you I guess. Good luck all!

TIGHT LINEZ!!!

Hi Jamie

Enclosed is picture of me sporting my Costa sunglasses and hat I got from you during the Hi_MAr tournament. Unfortunetly the stripers wanted to take a closer look at them and had to pay the price for getting to close.

Nice thing you are doing with the raffle.
