Oh well, here's a link http://stripers247.com/phpBB2/album_pic.php?pic_id=67
That's the Deer Island sewage treatment plant in Winthrop MA. The striper was about 42". Cheif & duda, thanks for the help.

Mark - that is a really great looking fish.

Sorry to say, your host that you have your pic on, doesn't like to share it with the forum software. You could always try Shutterfly or Villagephotos.

Great fish. Largest I've ever caught was 13 lbs at Kerr Lake several years ago. Think I need to head your way for some lessons.

That, my friends, was a simple hering. If you look close to the picture you see a giant chemical plant behind him.. Emagine that toxic waste can cause a hering to grow that big!!
Unfortunately for you this is the impression after ruling out the toxic waste ingredient..

And this is what you would get if you where go fishing about 2 weeks later.
Note that your boat would get awfully close to the waterline...

Looks a lot better then the former one..[:D]

Nice looking fish - I like the second one better (or should that be bigger). I have to learn how to fish...looks like fun. Cold and snowy here - the sleety kind of snow that turns wet instead of 'white' - just a few inches though. That'll mean a nice quiet day in the office...

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are truly blessed! Why? Because we have Spanky to teach us how to post pictures and we have Daan to teach us how to re-touch them. My bet is we will start seeing some of The Chief's trophy fish he's caught (wink) over the years...

Let the games begin...!

Name the guy that is so full of HOT AIR he could melt the SNOW in Ohio if he wanted, is so full of corn his picture is on all the "Welcome to Iowa" border signs, and looks ABSOLUTELY stunning in a slinky, white, revealing dress...

Hopefully, they will start a new topic next Sunday that is not
[#offtopic]

They get this way once in awhile. It takes them about a week or so to calm down when they discover something new they can do with the computer.[:D] Phase II is about to start where they discuss how they can make a wad of cash selling these pictures.

I will start a new one on Sunday 1-9-05. Otherwise, it will take too long to open for people with dial up.
