Ladyfish

Poor Dean. Thank heavens for him that afternoon. That was when the brute was going out and down for the millionth time and I was really debating what the heck I was doing here. He was making sure that I didn't follow it out of the boat And kept me motivated right after when I saw that the shore was no where close

Excellent post Chris! Definitely was a pleasure to fish with you. Thanks for all the help with the bar fishing............ Still say that rod was taller than me along with that being my first time using such a reel. And yes I admit I was still very stiff from the other day. I think the bruising is finally starting to lighten up.. But with all that said I have never felt the rush I had when I was tangling with that bruiser! Dean was a help making sure I stayed inside the boat when it decided to peel out for the millionth time and the other major part.... BREATHE!!! I was on pins and needles on the way back to the lodge after our day out at the Pitt while you guys were out fighting the sturgeon. I wanted you all to have the fun of tangling with one that size............but in the back of my mind I was also hoping to beat you guys with the biggest Hopefully there will another chance to head back when all the species will be open and better opportunity. Thanks again
