This is the funniest post in the stories forum. It's been here since 7-14-2005 and still no fisherman here has told a lie.

Me and a buddy of mine decided to take his boat out flounder giggin' at Ocean Isle Beach, NC one night. We always use his boat, because it is set up for it , with lights and generator. Well we were doing pretty good when he decided to run into the inlet on incoming tide. We poled the boat as best we could in the shallows next to the bank. We picked up several fish coming in with the tide, all of which were bigger than any we had caught earlier that night. We decided to turn around a go back, then come up the other side since the fish were so big. Mind you while fishing this way, usually we take turns. One poles us with the handle of one gig, while the other stands on the front with another gig looking for flounder. Well it was my turn and we headed up the other side. I picked up a couple of nice ones. Then we come up on what looked like the out lined tail of a flounder, but it was huge. I didn't say anything 'cause I had to make sure first. The boat went over his tail and I followed his out line. Then I saw his head. Then I knew it was a fish. His eyes shined like silver dollars in the light and I drove that gig square between his eyes and held tight. Mean while my buddy starts hollaring from the back of this 16ft jon saying help, help I got a huge flounder. Trying to hold my fish and look at him in the back to see what he had, I realized we had gigged the same fish :D .

Dad used to have a sign hanging in the garage that said "All fishermen are liars except for you and me and I'm beginning to wonder about you".:D
