Here is a picture that was sent to me by a friend of mine. His uncle caught this 80+ blue on rod and reel on the Missouri River.

Now that would be a fight!
Congrats to the man!

He must be strong... He isn't even straining; it almost looks like the fish is hung from a tree or something.

Good fish! No doubt! Any word on the bait used?

no word on the bait. I just know that it took him 40 minutes to land the fish. He was bound and determined to pull it over the side of the boat himself but decided to let his fishing buddies dip it and pull it for him because he was tired.

Surprised it did not take longer. Nice kitty......:cheers:

Note the level wind reel. (they don't call those reels "winch reels" for nothin!!!)
6500 Garcia for myself with 30lb plus spiderwire.

I say the mans heart is just fine. 40 minutes of that kind of excitement would even test a young mans heart.:

[Modeerhunter]

[Big Time Hunter]

BTH

 

[coyotehunter]

oh yeah,:whinging:and parker pulled into the farm today and the neighbors had a fresh big ole flathead hanging on the fencepost they caught at mt friday night said it weighed in the sixties:wave:

 

[Hoytshooter]

I got a few pictures of that fish soon after it was caught. Don't think I have them anymore though.

I wouldn't mind hooking in to one of those, and it would be even better if it was a flathead!
