« on: Feb 17, 2009, 09:18 AM »

Just a couple of Lexi my 2 year old! She really just wanted to sit in the truck and eat donuts but loved when the flags went up!

Cherish the moment. She looks like she had fun. Thats what matters. I know how it made you feel.
 Better than getting a 1000 pounder.

 By the way that is great pike bait :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Nice fish. What was the weight?

Thanks guys....that one weighed just shy of 800, the day before I lost one at the boat that was well over 1000, the rod broke in half! I have never had it happen before , but I broke two that day..LOL oh well I guess at thew moment I was unhappy, very unhappy but it happens...the next day we managed this one and it was November 11 when I should have been deer hunting I was killing tunas! so I guess I won't complain...but still I have fished all over guided in AK and have a small charter operation out of Plymouth, not advertising, I have caught a lot of fish, and that pickeral was one of the most meaningful!  So thanks for the welcome, my name is Doug and I am from middleboro, ma...
