What !! ? Bushy didn't  get his on a Big Hammer  ? :smt003
I got mine cranking a Salas 6X in Scrambled egg with two fresh squid pinned on.  Trying to for a 50# WSB.  Guarantee I'll be bouncing a BH at Albion. You'll get your Pic then.  :smt005

I think he did,  but I didn't get a picture with one in it.

yes it was a big Hammer....One of those bright ones Polepole gave me with the bright red line through it.

But, I lost my olympus in transit fromPanama.

Anyone got a good still digital camera for trade or sale?

Dustin had this offshore thing down! Rigged on the boat before launching and always at the right place for a photo op. Everytime I saw Dustin, I was motivated to stay focused on fishing. :smt004

Anybody missing an Extrasport ball cap?

I ran out of there Monday morning and left a bag behind.  Jeff Morgan (No relation, Pat's buddy) had his mom and dad drop it off on their way north yesterday.   So….thanks to Jeff for running back and getting my bag and coordinating the delivery back to me.   Jeff and Ian are solid dudes.  I think we may get to fish with them up here at some point.

Glad you like the hat.  I'll hold onto that crusty ExtraSport hat until I see you next.

hahaha,,, that calico ripped 7" off  of an 8"  pearl white Big Hammer.    It was the first time I'd even used it.   Brutal!

Big Hammer doesn't have an 8".  They do have a 9", which was designed specifically for boiler bass.

    So precise,,,     I circum-sized it.

Anyone got any good fishy shots from this trip with a Big Hammer in them?  I'd love to send them some.

-Allen

Wow. You guys had great weather and awesome fishing. I was out there on the Islander a day before you and had to deal with constant 15 knot north winds.
Though I did manage my first legal Halibut of 36".

Fun times.
