Honestly my board goes 24 inches and she was over that by quite a bit. She may well had been 26 plus but I felt like 25 was fair and the fish care was my most important thing at the time. I wanted her alive terribly bad. Phil i think I saw this fish yesterday while fly fishing but the brown I told you about was bigger than this fish for sure. The fish was thick as could be all the way to the tail. Picture doesn't show that but again I was hell bent on keeping her alive if at all possible. It doesn't matter, it's a giant regardless! Congrats again and cudos on being so concerned with getting her back in the water alive. snagged in outlet 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 3 different Browns this weekend that I believe were over 20 pounds each and one of those was maybe pushing 30. Two of those followed baits up to my boat.. They look like submarines. I was getting fish pretty good one of my cheap jerkbaits that I modified and then lost it.... Johnsfolly and Seth 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
