:santa: LOL
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Really nice fish Matt, I love the Notellum, one of my favorite places to fish. I usually put in at the Idza Zekret launch and sink shrimp through the Addy Annown hole, right after the bend on the river be Astory Ucantear. :batman: :-$ :-$ :-$

hehehehe, yep, love that river. Wish I had a boat with an engine.

OK first pic 18lb silver personal best silver. Its kinda at a weird angle and tail was curled, but trust me 18lbs.

Second pic was My biggest king of 2010 that made it home with me. A 24lb king my son is 12 and my daughter is 9 to give you an idea on size comparison.

And the 3rd is a 14lb hen steelie I just picked up. Its the biggest steel so far in 2010.

It was 58", just shy of the 54" slot size. We tried as best we could to get an accurate measurement in the water, but couldn't get it down to the inch so we brought it aboard. Once we saw that it was 4" over we just quickly snapped the pic and put 'em back in the water. Didn't take a girth measurement, but it was as big around as a small tree.
