#387 for Elijah...tying my #387 for a short while...then completely surpassing my lifer count after. Super happy for Elijah and his accomplishments on this trip!

Swamp monster...

Image

Finally a lifer for me...my only lifer of the trip...and my first lifer of 2014...yes, it was a difficult trip...

Image

We caught more species...but Northern Snakeheads are just too cool not to highlight. Lia's lifer Northern Snakehead was impressive! It was about 8-9lbs, but the photographer did a pretty good job to make it look massive :wink:

The snakehead whisperer

Yes, we did have a blast!!!

Nice size… I bet they were good eating too.

I would love to have thrown a buzz bait in that "swamp"… as long as I was using 30# braid.

We deep hooked one and it didn't survive so we took it home with us. It was fantastic pan fried and served as fish tacos. :D

That swamp doesn't have snakeheads...and fish are quite a bit smaller so a buzzbait will likely be ignored. Small #1 gold spinner does get noticed though. :wink:
