Good thing you stayed out there and toughed it out during those snotty conditions, you were rewarded!

Thats looks like the yak weather where I do alot of catching....

Nate, that's a pig!!!

You should have released it into Bare Foot Bar & Grill lagoon. I was there yesterday - they've got some huge calicos, but I didn't see too many big sandies.

If you guys haven't check that lagoon out, you must:

It's very cool to see WSB, schools of yellows (some nice 25# size), halibut, barracuda, bass, sharks - they got almost all of southern California species right in their lagoon. Bring the kids - they'll get a kick out of watching all the fish too...

Nice one Nate, saw one caught almost that big while fishing Redondo today, it had that head, but not the belly, yours is a TANK, reminds me of that South Park episode with Bono...........I am thinking of resurrecting WCB

Sherm · 04-28-2008, 07:18 AM

Yeah, I know.
Why would I say that thing is "Crazy big" if I really thought it was a WSB"?
I was just goofing that Ugly Grumpy was as big as a purty WSB.
Damn nice Feesh.
BTW, here's a crazy big WSB.

Dennis · 04-28-2008, 12:01 PM
