I went out fishing with Catfish Hunter and his buddy today; it was the first time I ever went bluefish/striper fishing. While I only caught one fish, it was a dandy. Catfish Hunter and his buddy caught a couple of blues.

Mine was 16 lbs, 35" long. Take a look:

According to catfish hunter's digital scale, it weighed in at 16 lbs 2 oz. I'll just say it's 16 lbs even.

It was definitely a blast. I think I'm going to have to buy myself a saltwater rig in the future [ko]

hey Dave welcome to the world of salt water fishing...just dont tell me u used your trout rod for that bass....
I was toying with it... NOT! It probably would've blown it up into a dozen different pieces. Actually, I borrowed a rod/reel setup from my cousin. I don't know the specifics other than the line was Trilene XT 18 lb test.

Thank you all!
