world records - lonehunter - 02-15-2004
sure is a lot of world records being broken , or attempting to be broken this start of the new year .
any of you bft members come close to setting a recognised record for your state ?
it sure would be nice to see some of you break or come close to your state record fish . how about giving it a go this year ? maybe we could become or start the bft master anglers club .
wadda' think guys ?

Hey there lonehunter,
Yea...... I tried but they sent back my application as being 'REJECTED'!
Seems like that they don't consider starfish to be fish! Oh well, I tried for my one minute of fame.

years ago i could have set a I.G.F.A. record for halibut on 4# class line wasn't until a couple of years later i found out no one had summited a halibut on 4# at the time

I'm going for that Big Boy at Castaic this year. There is one that is very close to 22lbs and another that was estimated at around 30lb. If I get him, then I can retire and work as a permanent volunteer for BFT.[cool]

Would love to see a pic! Have you considered registering and getting yourself a username on here? It'd be great to be able to actually identify you when it comes to future posts. When you sign up, tell them DDR talked you into it!
