Smile Fishinggeeks round 2. Here we go again

Caught a fish this weekend that just blew my mind. More so I think than the WRecord bow and burbot. Maybe its just the adrenalin flowing still, but it takes a freek of nature to get this geeks blood flowing. Ill post up pics and a story soon. I promised a good riend joel shangle who wrights for espn and outdoor canada that he would have first exposier and pics. So hold on my friends. These geeks got some more work to do now that we caught this fish. Stay tuned. You won't be disapointed. Sorry for the spelling. Lol. On my stupid blackberry.

I'm betting rights off this photo have been bought. If its outdoor Canada cover material like he said. Thats likely the first place we will see it.

Looking forward to it.

That was this one...

CPT111043392_low.jpg

VANCOUVER - Three years ago, British couple Michael and Margaret Snell travelled to the Vancouver area for a fishing trip and thought they hit the jackpot, reeling in a sturgeon that was 1.5 metres long.

But that trophy pales in comparison to the massive fish the retired couple caught in the Fraser River during a return trip this week, hauling a white sturgeon out of the water that measured nearly four metres and weighed half a tonne - believed to be one of the largest fish every caught for sport in North America
