That one in the picture was right around 14 foot in diameter at the butt IIRC.
Northern tip of the Charlotte's circa 1980. At that time I was a riggin rat, mostly RW rigging slinger or SS Hook and Rig. 90 foot Madills mostly. Last couple of years in the woods I spent on a saw.
At that time we were in a virgin watershed. The fishing was as incredible as the trees.
