State Smallmouth Record Broken on Lake WA!!

According to the Seattle Post Intelligencer, Hector Martinez, a 12 year old boy from Puyallup was fishing with his dad and uncle in Gene Coulon Park yesterday afternoon with night crawlers and a float.

Just 10 minutes into fishing, little Hector felt a big tug on his little Ugly Stik rod and immediately called his dad and uncle for assistance.

"His pole was bent so far over," his uncle said, "that I knew it had to be a huge fish.

Got me too, good story!
I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker

Once I read 12 year old boy......

I thought for sure this was for real because that will probably be the way it will go down. Soaking crawlers, off the dock on a snoopy pole.

Saw once at Martha Lake (alderwood) a 5 year old with a snoopy pole catch a 3lb triploid thru the fence on the dock...... You couldn't believe it when 5 retired guys tried to help that little kid get that fish through the fence.....His mother brought us all cookies later in the day... :-)MAKES YA FEEL GOOD!!! To bad it wasn't a bass.... :-(

Fly Fishing is the art of attaching a fake bug to a line and relying on the appropriate manipulation of the rod to deceive the fish into eating a sharp steel hook covered with feathers and fur.

Thanks for being such good sports. :bball:

I posted this at a different forum. Even after over 250 hits less than three had the courage to admit that got bamboozled.
