well I went fishing this morning also and thought I would be the first to post, but looks like I was beaten to the punch.
Nice fish Sean, but you did not say what it weighed and we cant read the scale in the photo?? how many inches?
I am not going to dq you, just get a better pic of the scale next time. ;)
here is what I caught
mine was only 5.0 lbs. but taking a pic, with the sign and tape measure was not that easy. especially since I was by myself. the state record for stipers is 57 lbs so I am under 10% but it was a good day on the water. ;D
