I've met many hardcore surfcasters in my life. This guy gets the nod from me as perhaps the most hard nosed and determined guy I've ever fished with. Congrats to Mike V. (Redlite) on a great catch from the surf a few nights ago. Fish went 46#.It was one of 13 big fish he took that night. You da man, Mike. :btu:

RIROCKHOUND 07-31-2008 02:56 PM

Mike certainly is hardcore.
Great job redlite!

Congrats Mike :btu:

Fishing with Mike is Pure Entertainment AND he's got a nose for the basses. Did I mention intense?

fishsmith 07-31-2008 07:59 PM

I still like the way he tangles with the seagulls.

Nice fish Mike!!

Nice fish redlite!!!!

Pete_G 07-31-2008 08:32 PM

Tenacity, determination, and the will to keep fishing when it's slow are under-rated skills (and in many ways it IS a skill) in fishing.

Nice fish Mike.

Sea Dangles 07-31-2008 08:55 PM

Great job Mike, you are certainly hard-core. Thanks for the "Flash", it says alot about you as a person. Many guys would have done whatever they could to prevent someone from getting in on that type of action. For certain if you ever "Flash" me again, I will walk on water to get there:)

Here it is in a nutshell..
I always said I am Not a good fisherman.I just try harder than most..
The squeaky wheel gets the grease..
Or something like that..:kewl:

Congrats Redlight - memories of that night will carry you a long time.
