d: none of the above

Lester in on a tear. Watch out

I’d rather stink than get blown to smitherines hahaha

Ah. Well it’s tricky, I tried to hand land that one for some time. Dorsal and pectoral fin rays are what you want to avoid. Also blues bite like a freaking German Shepherd. You just have to be willing to lose a little bit of skin off your hands. It’s ok it grows back

Sheesh! We’ve only ever got 2 keeper, but man they were good. Some years we can’t catch a single one, the ocean is weird!

It was one helluva strike, I’ll say that

That reminds me of another funny picture I have of my buddy. There were a bunch of fiddler crabs at our campsite in the marsh and he tried to walk out there and cast net them

Backreel. I used 6 lb test and that thin wire hook, it held

I take my canoe to the ocean and rented kayaks there, I stay close to the beach or up in a marsh. I usually get a combo at Publix for $15-20 and throw the reel away before I go home. I have taken plenty of my own reels and I don’t think I ever ruined one but definitely had to take them apart and wash everything a time or 3 .

I saw arey catch a pike too, he said “not flipping that one into the boat”

Swindle just said he had the discipline of an untrained eater……. ?

Get em buddy! I’m always envious when you go up Benzonia way

Very slowly with no sudden movements. Gently cover the traps with towels and handle with care

I fished for like 13 hours one day and didn’t get a single bite. I was about to though

That one gave me a mild warning

My grandma, along with most everyone else’s in this region and my age bracket, starved their way thru the Great Depression and didn’t have a refrigerator. So let’s not blame her for eating plenty and using sodium haha

Zoom and ribbit and great.

@BassNJakewill throw a toad over deep clear water and still catch ‘em . Buzzbait is probably my all time fav

That one guy that got hit in the head with a ladder! Haha

Congrats!

Ha! Me too. My house came with a clothesline but I got bird doo on my clothes

My condolences . It has happened to me !

Just one

One of my favs as well, the gentle giant
