Alphahawk warned me but......
I had to go throw into that seam below the dam just to see what kind of monster might be in there. After a few hours of nothing, something tries to rip my rod away from me. I didn't think the first run was ever gonna stop. Straight ripping drag for over a minute and I was fishing with a 9ft extra heavy rod and 65lb test braid. Finally get it in the net. Almost 48 inches long with a 30" girth. Bottomed out the 50# scale. Freaking awesome.

That's a bruiser Nick. Mike, I think that's the look of exhaustion.

That's a once in a lifetime rockfish right there! Were you in Bass Pro sunday afternoon? I'm pretty sure I saw you and was going to say hi but didn't want to look stupid if it wasn't you haha.
