Now that is the funniest story I've read in a while.

Ya'll know the stories & tall taleas are always bigger in Texas.

ROLMAO!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I love fishing...but I, too, would've tried to toss that baby back in the ocean. Some things are just plain not meant to be caught! :mrgreen:

I agree with mochasue - what a bunch of sissies! And I resent the bit about them running into the wheelhouse 'like women'! Four of us girls would have stayed calm and ensured the poor creature was returned to the sea! :D 'The Eel Strikes Back'! Shame he didn't win!:lol:

I would have freaked out! Ran and hid where it couldn't get me. He looks like a scary little booger! Sorta.... creepy too! :shock: :lol:

And yet ANOTHER good reason not to go fishing in the OCEAN! :shock: If it weighed close to 100 lbs. how in the heck is that guy holding it out like that in the pic????

That's hilarious -

This is so funny! I have caught 2 eels on a fishing trip not nearly as large, but I will tell you one thing, the are FIGHTERS!!
