3rd annual TinBoats.net 4th of July Tournament

[fish devil]

:twisted: How big was it?

Just a hair under 7 pounds and 24 inches in length! I had to go back and forth between your fish and his fish, comparing eyes and fins and tails. #-o

In the end three sets of eyes agreed that Russ's fish was just an inch or so bigger.

:twisted: Congrats Russ!!!! =D> Yeah he got me by 1" The fish weighed 6lb 7oz. By the way it was caught on Public waters.

Nice fish everyone. No entry from me this year - lost a really nice fish at my feet - still would not have beaten Russ or Mr. Devil

Next contest will involve either panfish or number of fish caught


I have ideas!


Thanks Jim for hosting another great event

Woo Hoo!! I really need to thank Brine for putting me on some big fish later on in the day. We fished public waters on his side of town and I struck out that morning with 1 nonkeeper (next to his 8 or 9 nonkeepers...). We left there, went to Waffle House and then on to the next hole. I made the mistake of getting my double order of hashbrowns scattered, smother and PEPPERED... needless to say I was on fire the rest of the afternoon! We ended up catching a pretty good many fish (he even managed to pull out a catfish #-o ). This one actually got hung up in some underwater brush and I had to motor the boat over to it. I thought it was a catfish at first because it never broke the surface and kept diving down... I finally got her up and Brine netted her (best net man ever!).. thank goodness I was using my standard 15lb fluoro. I ended up catching another 3lb and a few more 2lb'rs off another spot he put us on.

Thanks again Brine, I enjoyed it... Poolie & Bassboy - you guys are going to love this place. I won't say where it was at simply because it's on his bass trail and I'm not giving out info!

I just went back through the pics again... I wish the clear water lakes I fish had fat fish like that. One of them I fish has pretty good fish - but most are long and skinny because there's no shad.

Great Job guys! It's been a long time since I've seen that many quality fish pulled out and posted from one weekend.
