Shattered my Record!!!

deadeyedave · 11-29-2009, 01:39 AM

Well, I met up with Flnz around 6:30 and we headed out. I tried a shoreline and didn't see anything so I decided to try another spot across the way. I noticed the tide changed so I positioned my boat a little more N., as the outgoing tide was just beginning toflow. I hoppedup to the middle seat and started to hook up my lights to my battery. Unbelievably, as soon as my lights came on I found myself staring at this monster, which was almost directly under my right light. I waited till I cleared her so I could grab my gig and stand on the front seat. As quietly as I could, I turned around and aligned myself for the kill shot. Bam!!!, I got a great stab off, felt and saw ahead shake something awful, held her down, and scooped her into the boat!!! I knew it was larger then my last, but we didn't getthe numbers until we got back to the ramp. She measured 26 and a 1/4 inches and weightaround 10.5 lbs.I think this is my last trip for the year, as I haven't seen many fish the last several nights.

Deadeye!!!

Look at the grub/gig challenge thread.

Congrats on that STUD. That is a big flounder. That one fish will feed 3 or 4 people.
