ORDER DENIED:D

There will be one being posted today that's 30+ but without the video. Great way to start it off!!

It's on ice
 

Measurements coming in next 24 hrs . :cheers1:.

6'7".........sure he is, if he's standing on a stool with stilettos on and you started measuring at the 2foot mark.

Mr Jones, Mr Jones, Mr Jones



I may not be the first to congratulate you for a nice fish but I'd like to be the first to commend you for posting your fish so early. Posting your fish so soon makes all of us want to get out, catch a 33pounder and knock you off the leader board. You've definitely set the bar, if you win with this fish welcome to Team Sewer: lobster, London broil, baked potatoes, beer battered halibut fish tacos, pork chops and lets not forget the beer, beer and more beer and every Team Sewer camp out. You also get a signed autograph of Greg's new book called, 'I Am The Champ':D



P.S.
Greg, what's for lunch..........Champ.;)

Nice start Tony!:luxhello:

32lbs is a nice start to 2015. To hell with tape measurements, where are the GPS co-ordinates!

Very nice fish. And you should get a bonus for getting it on an iron. Congrats.

Set the bar high! Congrats!

Here are the numbers
 

I am claiming about 40 " .

Weight
 

Another angler weighed it in at 32 lbs. and some change on a rapala scale . This was done as soon as I landed . Here iare the numbers that I came up with on bathroom scale .

Before shot
 

Forgive me . Am I using phone

I am claiming 32lbs
 

I had a little something something on the end of the jig. As soon as it got close or touched bottom , I got slammed . With a treble hanging out of his mouth , it was pretty much game over . Gaff shot and half a dozen love taps with my tire thumper and its game over . Depth 150 ' - 160 ' . Water temp 61.5 degrees . Approximate time 10:00 a.m. . Sky's were blue with calm winds . Ocean was very calm and almost slack . When I cut open his stomach it was empty except for a handful of gravel . Short strikes and near misses ? This fish was probably very hungry . Tight lines everyone . Put on your thermals and get out there . When I woke up there was ice on my pickup .

I know what my new Hali bait is.....gravel sack....... And on the Iron....(the cheeseburger combo?)

Duuude. Beautiful hali man. So many awesome meals to be cooked with that 👍👍

He does, in the Ironman WcW!

I'll keep it short and simple

Jorge, That looks like a bathroom scale shot with you on it? I hope you were holding the large Hali at the time! HA, HA.

Okay but, what about those 7-Ups?

I stopped and 16 different stores and couldn't find any 7up, pepsi, RC cola or Jaritos...................apparently, people aren't buying that stuff so the stores stopped carrying it. However, I did find this
