That s right folks the first Titan of the Year has been caught and released. The Big Blue was caught by Tim McAroy of Bellflower on a filet of Mackral while fishing the West Shore. The fish was immediatly brought up to the shop and weighed in. It was then photographed and ran back down to the water where it was released. The fish swam away unharmed. Great fish Tim. Now I will let the photos do the talking.

With a little over a month of night fishing remaining who knows when the next big boy will come up. This is the time for the Big Blues. Who knows the next one might be on your line.

congrats on the outstanding cat! I talked with some fishermen out in the water early this morning, and someone had a nice long run...seems like some of the big-guns are beginning to chew-...

good luck all!
