Default What I did\'nt want to see

Not to beat a dead horse and get a pancake bunny [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img]
But I saw it on the water today. A fish was hooked and I thought for sure, monster brooder. This boat drifted down for freekin ever, we kept below.Then I'm thinkin snagged. too long of a fight for even the baddest of bad boys.
Finally the net dips and up comes a feesh. Two heads look up, and then down the river, and bonk, nite nite.
Couldn't confirm but my gut tells me bad, this fish was only 12# and a charcoal belly to boot.
Anyone else see this guy?
There were 3 boats above him?
BTW we didn't win a spot in the challenge, by my calculations, our fish were less than 10#. But CHROME Fishnpray will post pic. later
And PS.
Yall know this allready, but please help educate others to get the fish in as soon as possible, and it really is not worth keeping if it is foul hooked. They don't taste as good.

Who cares? Lets see. The people that care about fish.
If you fish with 4# test you better damn well have the rod to do it and do it quick.
That fish was near dead when they got it to the boat. What if it was a native? Would you care then? I fished 8 & 10 # today and managed fish just fine.
Get your fish in.
Who cares? I do!! Get a grip.
Uggh. Still venting.
