Father/Son Fun +forum contest
Had a very successful fishing trip with my father, he had quite a few hookups but couldn't really get any in, he was a bit rusty. I landed around 12 altogether with one hog... Contest: Rules: First person to guess the exact weight of this hog I caught... gets two prizes. First prize is a copy of the fly that I caught this fish on, and the second prize is a copy of my most productive fly pattern (have caught over 100 fish on it this season) Pic taken in front of Poor Richards where it was officially weighed.  Same fish next to Walnut Creek Marina  Pic of the father with a fish he helped me net :-) (happiest guy on the steam!!)

Sorry guys... by no means and in no way was I trying to brag... I just wanted to show ya guys my big catch!! My biggest so far! Also I wanted to give away some lures to a lucky guesser! Numbers mean nothing, it's the enjoyment that matters :-) and yes... 2 flies :-)

Numbers mean nothing
But yet you post a thread about numbers. Weight of fish represented by numbers. Amount of fish. Counted with numbers. Giving away a prize. Not 1 but 2 flies. You say numbers dont matter. I believe you.  Nice fish though

By the way. Did somebody dare you to sport that Pirates cap? Or are you just that proud of them?

haha... well someone has to root for the Pirates dont they? lol
you guys are missing a key range of weight tho... think about it... what do typically most of the larger fish weigh?

12 lb 6oz. Nice fish. I got a couple like that this year. Far from records but a nice citation fish. Good luck in your quest for "the one" The Deetz

well I am not trying to impress anyone... just have a little fun giveaway... I am sure there are guys who could fish me out of the water on here... but life/fishing isnt a contest... and the only thing that matters is you enjoy yourself!!!! Plus two free flies just for guessing? I mean that seems like a pretty sweet deal to me! You guys are still a little off :-) Hint: Length was 35 inches

Nice fish. 14.632 # Wow, fewer fishermen there than 4 mile creek today. Oh, and what day did you catch the 100 fish on that fly?
