Old photo of a sambo / amber?????
Submitted by Andy Mac on Thu, 2007-02-01 21:07
Looks a bit amberish. Can I get a definative "NO IT ISN"T YOU IDIOT!!!!"
Because this is the closest looking fish I have to an amber in my home fishing album. Everything else is a definate Sambo.
Hope the holding was good enough.

Tough one
The head isn't really streamline enough for an AJ... I'll wait for an expert like Honsu to comment before locking it in. :)

amber strip is missing
I think its actually still just a plain old sambo but its closer than anything else I have.
Jays vid inspired me to look through some old photos to see if I had ever caught one.

Yeh
Hmm on second thoughts I'm thinking sambo, just looked at this pic of Honsu's amber from a while back.

definate sambo for sure
after looking at that pic of Honsu's its way different. Ah well, I must stick that back on my list of species to catch.

I would say Sambo even
I would say Sambo even though I don't have much experience with either species... I've seen countless photos. I also saw first hand honsus amber that was caught recently... It definately had a rosy appearance when it came up (well that's how I would describe it).
