Greetings from Atlanta

Hello, Just realized I have been a member here for some time and not introduced myself. I live in Atlanta, been here for 12 years, origionally from the UK. Plan on becoming a US Citizen next year (if you'll have me :-)).

Have been fishing for 46 years, LBSF for about 3 years, on the FL Gulf coast. As a family we have landed a few Bulls, Sandbars and Blacktips. Best so far was a huge (to us) 8ft 3in Bull, caught by my wife. So she has caught a bigger fish than I have now, which is how it should be :-) We get super exited about LBSF, the opportunity for the average Joe with no money to hook into a fish of a lifetime! Not usually achievable without chartering an expensive big game boat for a day.

We always marvel at the huge hammers and tigers we see being caught in S.FL. We have a 6/0, 2 9/0 and a new 50w outfit for our fishing. Hoping to tangle with something that scares me soon :-)

I Love this website, there is some amazing info on here, also some amazing Shark fishermen too. Hope to hook up with some of you down the road.

Cheers Gordon
