    Default One fish can make a day

    Started at noon to fish the incoming and like many trips this fall action was non-stop. But when the rod bent over in half I knew we had a big one.



    The picture does not do the fish justice.. 45 inches long..

    Great fish capt. Mike. I fished the tidal Appomattox River today from noon till four and also had a lot of action but nothing that big.

    That guy makes your boat look like a little 17' key west or something. Not wonder the fish looks about average. So what did it weigh?

    Length Calc says it is 47.3 lbs but with that belly it was close to 60lbs. This guy has a 68 inch chest and arms the size of my leg.

    I am sure it was 60lbs plus as it broke my net and it took two hands just to lift it..

    Nice fish Mike......When's your birthday? Maybe someone will get you a set of scales to weigh your fish. That fish calculator thing can be off 5lbs. or more a lot of times.
