Braggin’ Board Pictures | May 1, 2011

Ahmad Norzamzi Borhan from Malaysia shows us an exotic (and big) 27 lb snakehead recently caught on his Daiwa STEEZ rod and Ryoga reel. Pretty neat seeing fish such as this. Thanks, Ahmad!

Aigereem Osti shows off a very nice 3 lb sea bass (large for Israel) caught on ultra-light spinning gear consisting of a 7 ft Shimano Clarus UL rod and Shimano CI4 spinning reel. Well done!

Milan Dzikovic definitely has his hands full with this 70+ lb bluefin caught on a Shimano rod and Stella 5000SW spinning reel. Milan says this big guy too an hour to land!

Kamal Al Sultan of Kuwait says after catching this nice fish it was time for a cold one and the barbecue. We couldn’t agree more!

It’s bream season in Belgium according to Gunther Van Ginneken. He made sure to confirm this fact for us by catching the huge bream he’s holding!

Nothing better than that first fish caught on a new rod. Lance Hildebrand holds a very nice steelie that really proves that point!

How about a VERY NICE Lake Erie smallie? Dwight Hottle of Erie, PA sends us this great picture showing us how it’s done. Dwight was using a G. Loomis NRX 802C with a Shimano CORE 50MG7 throwing a Lucky Craft Pointer 100 jerk bait. Bravo!

There’s nothing we enjoy more than a happy fisherman and Philip Novitsky sure qualifies for that. Philip’s Wilson River steelhead was one of many he and buddy “Chrome Obsession” said the action was early and often on this late March day!

Our friend Bob Daly is back from Argentina and says his trip to La Zona was unbelievably successful. This huge golden dorado proves Bob’s claims without a doubt!

“This is my first Badung” says Ahmad Norzamzi Borhan from Malaysia.This unique fish weighed in at almost 7 lbs!

Our very own Brian Dolne shows us that he’s just as proficient catching crappie as bass. This BIG guy certainly confirms that!

Vitaly Osti says this 1 1/2 lb grouper was “cute”. Hey, it’s a fish and had to have been fun on Vitaly’s ultra-light spinning gear! 

We have known for years that a G. Loomis hat will help you catch BIG fish. Kamal Al Sultan sends us this great picture to doubly confirm this fact. Way to go, Kamal!

Gunther Van Ginneken says once a year fishermen are allowed 4 trout in the water he fishes. “This is a perfect size for the bbq”, says Gunther. Yep, we couldn’t agree more!

Our resident pro and store manager Adam Daywalt shows us how it’s done! He bagged these two fish (6.9 lb and 4 lb) during a tournament a week ago. Way to go, Adam!

Here’s a reminder of one of the real pleasure of fishing compliments of Gunter Van Ginneken. Beautiful.
