Just saw a photo of a HUGE Tiger Muskie taken from Canaderago Lake (just above Cooperstown, NY). It was caught last Friday...54 in. long and nearly 39 lbs!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: (weighed by NYS DEC on digital scales). That fish was enormous and if i can get some pics, I'll post them.

Funny thing is, the guys that caught it (as well as the ECO) said they're in the lake a lot bigger than that even because nobody actually goes out and targets them specifically. What few are landed are by people fishing for either 'eyes or bass. The ECO said the fish measured over 9" across the back of it's head.

Want to see if they like PINK WORMS "Craypooch"!!!

Hey guys did you check yesterday on the msn website the MONSTER TIGER SHARK that some fishermen cought in a shark tournament. 1,200 lbs that thing was huge!! The funny thing was that this guys didn't win the event because they got 6 minutes late!! can you imagine that. Can you imagine the husstle trying to put that fish inside the boat, and then be at port 6 friggin minutes late. Hold on I need to throw up.....@#&*%$!*&..

Let me get this straight...these guys go fishin' in the ocean. They catch a 1200 lb. Tiger Shark in the ocean...last thing they probably expected of that size, but lose contest because fish made boat take on water??? What else could make them 6-minutes late???

Now...JStreamside sees picture of Tiger Shark...which most certainly reinforces why JStreamside will absolutely not fish in the ocean...'cause there IS stuff swimmin' around in it big enough to me!!! Thank you very much, but the SR and Lake O are plenty big enough for me!!! And that goes double for some of the "local gals" that cruise the bars in the Poolaski area!!!

Shorty Out!

And to make it even worse, I read in the local paper that the winnings would have been over a quarter mil!

I have seen a few tv shows out here in Boston on shark fishing off the cape, It takes over a hour to bring a shark of that size to the boat. I also saw the story about those guys who were 6 minutes too late. Trust me when I say chances are those guys probably had more $ in thier checking account than the prize money they missed out on. The boats that they play on are 100k+ alone.

...'cause there IS stuff swimmin' around in it big enough to me!!! Shorty Out!


Two years ago I was fishing the monomy flats and watched a 12ft great white swim about 15 ft away from me. I was in the water up to my waist.


I think the only reason why it didnt try to eat me was because I was ****ting my pants.
