Nice fish mate.

Nice one Allen no Beard this year

Nice fish dude!
Couldn't have happened to a better guy....unless that guy had a beard. Oh well, you still deserve it.

Talk about a BIG WOW!!! That is a monster halibut Allen. Dude, I am so happy for
you. Big Congrats! I can't wait for your report.

Jedmo

looks like a tw full of verms ta boot!

Indeed, I released a couple of decent reds and tons of big coppers and blues.

I kept what I thought was a very respectable fish



But it's a minnow next to Allens Behemoth; can you spot it here?

I have to throw in a WOW!!! too.

& a Beautiful photo - I suggest you print a large copy, place it in a nice frame, and hang it on a wall somewhere. I mean that's more than just another mug with a fish in hand. That belongs on the cover of a magazine!

I will now log in ever hour on the hour anxiously anticipating the details of this catch. Thanks for sharing!

Holy crap!!! Way to go, Allen!

Friggin AWESOME fish!
A big CONGRATS Allen.  Great OTW pic.  Can't wait to see more and hear the details!

Nice Halibut, Allen!

Seeing that shot made me feel just like I was there

Catch of the season, no doubt.

stuck in the office by butt... or your 'but i guess. Nice fish, glad to see it!

Congrats Allen... that's one for the books! 

Hey, I just recognized you & your handle Santa Cruz Allen!

I met you at the San Pablo Reservoir recently during the REI demo day. We talked about Prowler Tridents just before my family dragged me off the beach. I had a very hard time leaving. I remember your Salmon Shark photo (very impressive) and you urged me to get a trident, etc. - I dropped the truth about myself being a total greenhorn, and you cordially made sure I was on the NCKA forum, and I quote: "...well if you're on that board, your off to the best start possible!"

I agree. Everyone I've been meeting have been so cool, and I was grateful to meet and talk with you. It was really cool that you volunteered yourself to the that event to help pull people like me out of the dark. Thanks & cheers!

Ay CYRumBA!!!!!
