As most of you guys know we didn't make it back in on time to weigh our fish. We were so heart broken because we had some real beauties to weigh.:mad: Oh well, you can't win them all. We were working hard to fill our stringers out and I was one of the one's lacking. I only had two out of the three grouper I needed.:( But what really killed us was just trying to get these things in the fish box.:)

On the first dive I stoned this really nice 86 lb gutted carbo and was thinking to myself "you know it can't get any better then this" or can it? Well a little later I ran into Mr. Big and I had all I wanted and then some. Mr. Big ended up weighing a 101 lbs gutted. We didn't have a scale on the boat to weigh the guts so we just went with gutted weights.

Now you guys know why I've been having so many back problems.:cool:

Enjoy

Son of a b*tch - NICE!!!

Holy snot.!
I just cant fathom seeing a fish like that under water.!
Very nice.


Dago.

Holy Shit That Is Sick!!!! That is what a spearfishing forum is about!!

To bad Ronald didn't give you a $$$ amount.

Thats an insane grouper ! Its ashamed you didn't get to weigh him in...oh well , no little prize beats a killer picture anyway !

Ritchie... That fish makes your a$$ look big:D

Awesome!:eek:

And you guys cannot even imagine how much I wanted Tony the TOOL to take me up on the $1000 bet I called him on....

Damn, I could have used a grand.

You don't really think Tony is man enough to pony up to the table do you?

I am sure he was punked as a kid and beaten like a red headed step child in school, and now that he bought spearbored, SBO and spearfishing magazine he thinks he can buy friends, I guess there are a certain amount of losers he can buy, but the majority of people know he is nothing but a backstabbing punk.

Yes that is one hell of a fish, to bad they didn't make it back in time.

If that fish was shot on my boat, we would have came right in.

awsome grouper!!!!!

No wonder you were in a shitty mood at the weigh in!

A few beers and some psychological counseling snapped him right out of it . :( :eek:

Congrats Ritchie!!! I didn't even know about this when I talked to you today!! Is this your second in the 100 lb club??? Man, two fish, either would be a lifetime trophy for me, and you got them back to back!!! In freakin credible!!!!!

nice fish ritchie.

Making them smaller and giving you the choice to view them or not saves bandwidth thus saving $$$$.

Until we get some kickass tshirts designed, we're at a negative cashflow right now.

good idea. they actually look better this way when you open them.

Thumbnails were a great idea. It also prevents you having to scroll from side to side because some jackass decided to post a pic that was WAY too big.

Actually this software is 2 versions newer than SB. It has tons of settings. We are just over 24 hours into this, it will get dialed in. The bikini thread is up-what the hell do you want?

Things do seem to work a little smoother, I like it.

Tony could never figure out how to upgrade to a newer version. I shit you not. :)

i want you to move the spo date so i can shot it

Nice carbos Ritchie!

It was a shame we didn't make the weigh-in. You guys shoulda seen my 3.5 lb trigger :eek: That bitch would've made Ronald McDonald proud after one of his techie dives to 220 :D

U R a freaking animal Bucket...or should I say premadona;)
J.C

Fukin A Ritchie! :cool:

Ritchie, don't forget that making the weigh in is also part of the tournament. Serves you right for being greedy trying to get that 3rd grouper. If it was the SBO, I would have sold you my 23 pounder in the parking lot - full points! :eek::D:D

well he could have shot his 3rd one the week before and saved his money:D:D

Well it looks like I sooke toooooooo soon. Someone has already started the personal attacks.

Charlie

Is this your second in the 100 lb club???


It sure is. To get one in your life is something but when you get another, you join an even shorter club of guys that have done this. What a honor and trill it is.

Hey Ritchie....that Super Awesome. Congrats on the great fish! You da Man!

Congrats Ritchie...what a beast.

RZ,
Thats some awesome shizit right there! Congrats!!

Nice RZ

Either one of those would be my fish of a lifetime! Can't wait to get my deeper papers!
Are you going to awe us with another sheepzilla at the open?:eek:
