Nice fish, yes you're getting a heck of a week on the water buddy ;). I know you're excited, but Elizabeth might not be too happy with you keep bringing fish home ;D.
I like the way you hold that rod when fighting, my kind of style ;).
Thanks for sharing my friend, keep striking while its hot ;).

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Nice one Wallace - stoked to see you recovered from that last trip and a got into some fish.
That samson's a beast!
Hope you get the Tank into one of those soon.
Great work mate.

My man Wallace the fisherman.  Great job.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
