Largest smallie to date- said 5.75-6 on the spring scale and about 1 pound less on the berkley but the batteries are fading- either way my personal best t 20.5inches


Hes still alive and is going back to his lake tmw morning- I just cant steak him up  :P he now holds a special palce in my heart and on my hard drive

that is a hog of a smallie, WTG  :thumbup_smilie: only hope that he/she makes it till morning to swim away.  :-\ Good luck, in the release.  ;D
Fishing isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more important than that!

I live with FEAR everyday, and sometimes she lets me go fishing!

Headed out for the release now- hes still alive and kicking


They do this alot in massahcussetts for the states award program

If I wasnt an aquaira enthusist I wouldnt of even tryed- too much practice with big south american fish did me well but this is the biggest fish Ive ever revived and kept alive from fishing or importing.

it would not be legal to do that here in maine...once you decide you are not going to immediately release the fish you must kill it here. bass tourneys are the only exception

Nice fish.......again not to dwell on things, but you really need to start carrying a camera with you. Much heathier for the fish

Well how about you buy me one? The fish got tranquilized upong entereing a 4 mill clear fish bag taht is 30 by 30 by 30inches...... I know what im doing

 

Its funny cuz this isnt a big deal on ANY other board i posted

Its not illegal in my state as long as the fish coems and goes back to the same lake. Jesus any other questions?

All i was looking for was a "wow monster smallie, good to see he went back :thumbs up:"


THE FISH SWAM AWAY UNHARMED AND IM SURE HES DOING FINE STILL, the fish had enough meds in his water to keep him running for weeks in that bait well.

Wow...once again you are blowing some constructive criticism way out of the water.  All that is being said is that no matter how much you know what you are doing or how many people in your state  do the same thing, it is still safer for the fish to have a quick release..

there was no personal attacks heres. just constructive criticism,

Hey NickP, great fish man, you must be all tuned up dude. There is nothing like slamming a hog like that. Don't sweat the naysayers; give a guy a computer, give him license to tell you what you "should" do. ;)
