Amazing catch and great story! That is awesome, on a 3wt. I've landed a few 18-20 inch largemouths on my 5wt and that took a long time too, can't imagine it on a 3wt. You sir have some skillz. :D

awesome catch!
Thanks bradda.

Beautiful fish :) He would look good in my tank, I'll trade you 5 sunnies for him :)
Man that fish would look ridiculous in your 500. I'll ship it to you in a heavy duty black garbage bag.

WAIT EVERYONE LOOK AT MASTER BS AVATAR AND BOOSTEN AUDIS PIC.

YOU JUST FOUND YOUR LONG LOST TWIN BROTHER! CONGRATS!
LMFAO..I think it's time for me to change my avatar!

Thank you.. I may attempt to target these and carp a little more on the fly but they're so finicky..I think the key is to target them before sunset, the double taper line definitely helps with a really soft presentation and stay extremely low when targeting them.

That is one massive Orenji koi! You're right, I did get a kick out of the story. Avatar really stands out.
