Biggest fish you've ever caught.

Correctamundo....
 
Lorreto is a nice little town. I spent a lot of time in Puerto Escondito when I had my boat down there. Even had my own mooring. Puerto Escondito has seen big changes since a developer was able to get control of area. Don't know if it is for better or worse. Been 8 years since I was there.
 
50lb redfish in salt water. 10 guys had $50 each on the biggest fish that day so i took home $450. Tried to get them to do the same on quantity but no takers. That would have been another $450. Just hooked a 5 +/-lb large mouth bass a couple of weeks ago.

Very nice Largemouth Peyton! I am originally from PA and I know a bass that size does not come along very often.

My largest freshwater fish is a 31# Chinook:

...but I did catch a nice Yellow Fin when we were visiting a friend in St. Lucia:

...but my son regularly shows me up. He is a producer for a cable fishing show and gets to fish all over the world. Here are a couple of recent pictures of him with Bluefin tuna:

I want his job!
 
That's a bucket fish, I'll probably never get, wrong ocean.
 
5# largemouth bass in a farm pond.
54# opp (flathead) catfish in Toledo Bend Lake, (this one probably shouldn’t count cause I caught him on a trot line with a bare hook).

My friend landed a 12 plus bass there too. A little pound that no one fished. Had big cats and bass and also got a world record rock bass from there and I thought it was a stupid looking bass and didn't have a phone
 
Freshwater was a 35 lb. mud cat in the St Johns. It was caught on a gig with a hand line but very shallow water.
Saltwater I was working a snapper boat out of Mayport (Fla) Snagged a grouper, but when I got it aboard, only about a foot behind the gills was left. The rest was gone in one bite. What was left was about 16 inches across, but grouper has a large head and small (relative) body.

No photos, neither was a "trophy" get. I may have a photo of the cat, but that was '74 or so.
