Im still impressed that Bruce could time it so well. Holding the fish still until the self timer ran down, while keeping that smile plastered on had to be a helluva feat.

(although the smile probably wasn't hard to come by...)

Bruce not hard for me to believe after all 2 monsters in one setting is unheard of especially the quality of the fish and the million dollar smile to boot. Greg I'd even smile if I had a pair like that and wouldn't think twice. Again Bruce fine fish and thanks for showing them.
