Tiger Report

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

That's a beauty of a tiger. And the ear to ear smile is not bad either. Thanks for the pics Margie.

Congrats on the PB.

Wow, thanks again everyone. I guess you could sense I was just a little happy about this one, hmmm? :lol: Again, your responses are appreciated!

I sure hope I can hit the 40" mark in the not-too-distant future. That's my next goal. Two 46 inchers were pulled out last week, both released. So they're in there... 8)

Thanks, Dad, for taking me fishing when I was a kid.

You know... "Year of the Nickel" could also apply to a 50 inch Tiger AND the 5 pound bass!!!

Aim high!

...Nothing can stop the U.S. Air-Force... sorry... some statements or phrases provoke a turrets like reaction in me where a cultural reference, obscure or otherwise, percolates to the surface for all to see!!

Good job Margie, I know it's starting to cool down and I hate it :lol: but no better way to stay warm than casting crank and spinner baits :lol: nice looking fish.

Yes, he had a real shovel head. I like to imagine him growing into that head in the next 2-3 years, and thought about that as I watched him swim away.

PS: Birdee - all that casting is good for the arms, too, as you well know. :lol:

Oops, Beachburger, didn't see your question! :oops:

I have a new, pretty inexpensive combo (as is necessary for budget right now!) ...

Shimano Sedona 4000FD spinning reel coupled with a Bass Pro Shops Power Plus "Trophy Class" rod. It's a good fit for me, for now at least.
