The Baby Bonker will go to the person that catches the largest Black Rockfish.

It's barely eight inches, compact but with enough mass to put the hurtin on most spesies...

Probably a losing bet. The blacks are hard to find here lately. My biggest of the two i caught was 16 inches
See ya on the water..

I got a 17 1/4", 17 3/4" and an 18 1/2" today.  I will post pics in a bit when I get the computer with the card reader.  They loved the shrimp flies I was offering.  I let the 14 incher go.

It's a beauty of a bonker.  You do great work.  Insayn showed me the one you made for him when we were fishing today.

That's one nice, fat black Craig.  Sounds like you guys had a great day.

I had a great time.  However, when I first got out there, I thought to myself, "If this is a "flat" day, what is a normal day. " 

Sadly, when I caught this fish on the shrimp fly , I broke off something that felt much larger off the jig.  The snap swivel wire broke, not the braid or the mono.
