Man you sure are getting some milage outta that $5 bow!  LOL!  I came over to see you at the Worlds Saturday and you were busy workin on some dude's reel so I just stole some stuff outta your boat while you weren't lookin to make up for that $5 i loaned you for the raffle ticket you won it with...  I only took your GPS...figured it was a fair trade.

Great gar Mark!  She's a beaut!

That is impressive,I always wanted to do that until recently seeing a "river monsters" show on TV.Given the age of something that size its sorta like butchering a huge old snapper or a 12 foot gator,things probably older than us.Said with respect,I can see doing it once but would have no desire to keep taking things that old.Again congratulations and said with respect.

Dang Mike you should have said something!  No problem the GPS just made me run further!!!  Yep that $5 bow has definitely be getting some mileage out of me, I appreciate it!
Jack is a real pro and has been trying to get me down there to fish with him for awhile now and glad we finally did it, great experience!
Yes I am with you on shooting old fish or animals like this, I only shot 1 and was satisfied with that like my monster alligator as well, they are definitely not something you go out and shoot a bunch of and consider them as supreme trophies that should be honored and not taken lightly!
