Here is a pic from the 80's when I lived in Calif. 38" long .this was monster for west coast standards.

Ha ha madcaster you look like Keanu Reeves. Party on dude! Nice striped bass. By the way how big to they get in California and what did you catch that one on?

[DarkSkies]

Madcaster nice pic. I have to agree with Surferman though, you looked like a long hair hippie freak back then.
Wondered if you were burning the trees, while fishing for bass?

Thanks for posting up, great picture.....

Having met Madcaster, I say the resemblance is very slight...but who knows....
Is it possible that was his secret life before he came to NJ?

I don't know Madcaster,,,,is it?

Hi Madcaster,,the boone trolling lure swims just like a giant rattletrap,it is about 4 oz and casts a mile like a bullet.
I had great success fishing with that one.back then huge gators were the only game around and they would actually stop you from cranking your reel and yank your rod down.
