Title: Lunker
Post by: Wlfgng on May 01, 2003, 09:03:07 AM: biggest caught in Colorado to date.. 44 lbs

this guy is an aquaintance.. caught a 23 punder earlier in the same day. Saved this fish from a cruel existence of being overweight...

Post by: Arfann on May 01, 2003, 01:59:10 PM: I remember when Blue Mesa was a gorgeous valley with a nice river to catch 2 lb+ natives. Think I preferred it that way.
