we put 23 to the boat in a day and a half last year

Wow you are good! At a minimum of an hour fight on those big oversized buggers you must have practically had a fish on for the entire day and a half!


where did you get that number from? that statement shows your ignorance and lack of knowledge on these fish..... most fights with proper gear are in the 15-35 min range.... a long one will be 45 min....... I have a youtube video of a buddy of mine landing a 7 ftr in 10 min..... if you have proper gear and dont fight them like a girl and actually work.. they can be landed in a very quick manner for a fish of that size/strength....

Haha that's funny! ... I'm not the one who claimed I knew anything about these fish I am just stateing what I know and I never asked what type of gear you used did I??? And I'm not the one claiming how many I caught ... So if I'm ignorant what do you call a guy that makes claims that may not be entirely accurate???

There you go again  :rolleyes:  not entirely true huh? Your forgetting some other people and their version is entirely different and I have been awfully nice not going into the details, having said that I can see you are the type that doesn't remember those days that you don't boat a fish vs. the good days! Look I'm just busting your chops because most won't so don't get your panties in a knot I never said you couldn't catch a fish ... Toot your horn all you want pal your gaining lot's of new clients.

You are stating what you "know" yet that info is completely  inaccurate...and stating that my number of fish is not possible because of said info.. what would you define that as?  unless there are more people on this site then I am aware of it has been 3, not 2.. i forgot one.. and of course everyday isnt a limit but more times then not they are... as far as the oversize go, regardless of anyone elses opinion I have never had a day without boating at least 1... and that is a reallly bad day.... most are 5-10 when I am fishing for just them.. in the fall we usually get 1-5 a day along with keeper fish.. its the best of both worlds really.. as far as the oversize debate goes, for me until there is SOLID evidence that states the recreational fishing has a adverse effect on spawning fish I will continue to enjoy it, if and thats a BIG if IMO that day comes I will stop fishing for them and target them above the dam which also has great fishing for them, or in august after they are done spawining, and if you have good bait or get floater shad that is arguably the best oversize fishing to be found anywhere.. I have no reason to "inflate" my numbers of fish... I catch what I do and if that seems boastful then im sorry.. im not the best, but im certainly not the worst either when it comes to fishing.. so you can make your own call on that, I however dont judge or assume much from a online forum.. I prefer to actually get to know the person before I make statments or opinions on them.... but thats just me.... I tell it like it is from my POV and sadly many people cant understand or accept it..

Paul, if you got rid of your dumb ass, god like ego, your boasting posts, your wanna be attitude people might actually like you.
Its hard to stand you on a forum, let alone who would pay to play and have to listen to your wanna be crap ALL FRIGGIN DAY, You were/are the same way on every site. Get over yourself, your not that good. And your not that special.

And fix your wanna be name, drives me nuts cause you aint NO prostaffer for Hoyt. Wannabeprostaffer should be your name. Or you could use GODLIKEPROSTAFFER. That would sum it all up.

For crying out loud, how hard is it to figure yourself out?
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me to.

I just marked this day on my calendar... because HawkenBob and I actually agree on something, let's not make a habit of this.

I proposed "hoytstaffinfection"... I still think that sums it up best... that name shows no MERSA  :IBCOOL:

this thread is locked....going in the wrong direction. the only reason i am leaving it here and not nuking it completely is for some of the good content.
