OHH MY GOD!

Lucky bastard. Sounds like his day was perfect. A World Record a 50lb ling and a monster halibut to boot. Dang! He must be on cloud nine.

Your funny Drewp. You did beat me to posting this. I hadn't heard of this yet. Thanks for the info. on an outstanding catch. Always love to hear when records are broken.

I'm heading to Langara Island (Canada) in just over 2 weeks. Wouldn't it be nice to land a monster like that. That think could engulf his entire head. It'll be my first trip to the northen waters.
