I'm trying to wrap my head around a swung fly on tight line causing a heavy bleeder. I guess it's possible but it seems really unlikely. I'm guessing "landing trauma",
fb +1 Landing w/ Gorilla Gill Grip. They are tough fish!!!! Big grin in photo?????

"I now know what you look like and if I ever see you on the river, it will not be pleasant. " from twb..
Brave words over the internet! this guy at least posted a pic of the fish and is saying basically this was the fish of a lifetime and a world record and hey I knwo its not the right thing to do but I killed it. he's at least coming out and owning it .. you on the other hand have a fake who knows who you are moniker on an internet site and now want to make random threats. you threaten me and then try to meet me on a river you'll have your hands full ! lets hope peter is nicer then me. for your sake . If its me I am asking every fly fisherman I see if they know you just to take you up on the offer!
Nothing gets my blood boiling like an idiot who wants to be a hero and make threats over the internet. I dont know whats worse killing a nate or beeing an A*s the nate killing was a one time deal you beeing an A*S wont go away until someone call's you on it.... agreed... so i must be a hufe asshole too?

it's late, I'm tired. And I'm sick of Peter's BS:
Sorry Sir Peter ... knighted "sir" for your conservation efforts. A crock all round from what I've been told my witnesses on scene.
45 minutes to land a mortally bleeding fish, my ass.
Hope you get your glory with your "world record" ... I've seen many a fish landed bigger on the bugrod. Not the biggest by a long shot.
But if that's what turns your crank, so be it.
