That is one nice fish, congratulations.

Freeze it and take in the State of Maine Sportsman's Show, March 28 - 30, 2008 in Augusta and take a look at the displays of fish and make your choice.

I was geared for the other fish i was catching. medium heavy jig rod with 6lb. test. i was thinking oh no i'm going to break it off for sure but after a while I landed it. I was fishing with a group of friends but with all the wind and snow no one could hear or see me so I was on my own to land the fish. that thing did not want to come up that small hole.
