GOOD MORNING FNN:

WOW, IS ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS WEEKS "WEEKDAY WARRIOR" WINNER!!! Greg Stotesbury of Mission Viejo landed a 22.6 lb rainbow today breaking the standing record by 1 ounce. Greg caught his monster, record breaking, lunker off of Trout Island on Berkley Spring green/yellow turbo dough and using 4 lb Berkley Trilene Fluorocarbon. Greg says " It jumped several times, around and under the boat & lines, lots of sweat".

Congratulations Greg!!!!!!

Got to see the monster when I came off the water.. That thing was massive!! It head was the size of mine..Congratulations goes out to Mr. Greg Stoesberry who is a very accomplished angler.
Those of you that do not know him. Greg is one of the head guys of AFTCO fishing products and is an unbelievable saltwater fisherman as well as a very avid bass fisherman. He is a class act and knwos obvioulsy what to do when he hooks up to a big fish.
Great job Greg.

Nice Fish Man! It looks like it may be a recently stocked fish, with looking at the tail, or is it a holdover? I was thinking a holdover would have some full fins. Anyone have any suggestions? nice fish. Big "rainbow neck". Later and tight lines
