I didn't know you were a professional fisherman.... :) It's a bit chilly up here in the D.C. area....
 
Boy you got them mounted up fast!!! Must be the economy that is bad, most mount their fish in mahogony but you use preasure treated?
 
We have some good sized stripers in the St John's River.
We also have these fish the state stocks called Sunshine Bass. They are a cross between a white bass and a striper. They cannot breed. They get big in a hurry, and will outfight a largemouth every day of the week. I've causht quite a few of them in Lake Manatee. People there just call them stripers.
 
We got some nice ones today!!!!

Seriously!!!!:sifone::26::sifone::26:

We were at the marina this summer and a guy came in at about 2am in a 13 foot boston whaler. He was dragging a fish. Turned out to be what we figured to be a 150 pound tuna!!! I asked him if he was the Old Man in the Sea! He said the thing dragged him around for hours. Hard to find a place to take a fish like that at 2am!!!
 
They're in the midwest too!
