But most, if not all, consider Stripers good eating even at that size.

nice fish and unusual circumstances,think the retaining pin went over board during a feeding frenzy and got swallowed?as some one else said,good way to top off a good report. TT^

Nice report and congrats to both the captain for putting you on the fish and the angler for bringing that fish in. Sounds like you had other keeper bass and a ton of blues to go along with the bass. Good job on all accounts.  t^

Yes.  I believe he does..  Post that baby up in that forum.  those shirts will be ordered in a little more bulk this year though....


Just looked.  The bass is at 45#..  that does seem high.  should be 40#

40?

I bet there aren't more then 2 people on the board who ever caught a 40lb bass in their entire life.

Because it tastes good (is considered a food fish) and is legal.

Not like we kept 20 fish or even a legally entitle to limit.

50+ lbs would have been picture and throw back, but 35lbs is stilla viable food fish.

Besides 15lb fish breed too.
