44lb Sea Monster on the troll. L.B.I SEE PICS
« on: November 17, 2008, 09:49:32 PM »
My buddy sent me a picture on my phone. His brother and crew landed a 44lb 8 oz. monk fish off LBI today on the troll. Not sure of all the details yet but he wants me to reach out to the IGFA and see if its a record... Not sure if it can weigh in on the troll? I will post the picture once he e-mails it over . He is out to dinner for his wifes B-Day so I couldnt get it  yet. . Looks like a sea monster. In the picture it has a yellow rattle lure or stretch in it's mouth cant tell.There are also 2 keeper bass that look like bunker next to this fish.I will update this tomorrow morning.

Fish On!http://

WOW!  Big fish...usually out in deeper water caught bottom fishing, not trolling.  Very neat!  Can't wait to see pics.

 w0w  That's cool!  I'll try to look up the exact rules, but I don't think the IGFA allows wire line.  Of course, I could be mistaken.

Yeah Ron, wire line is not allowed as per IGFA rules. Another of their silly regs.

It is still a very formidable catch though.  t^
