        @Filthy That reminds me of an article I saw years ago about a Russian deepsea fisherman who had been posting his catches on Twitter.  There's some pretty terrifying looking fish out there for sure:

              Had my first jab.  On the way back home, I had to pass a moat that I have heard holds a good head of Perch, so I stopped for 15 minutes.  I'm desperately trying to catch a drop-shotted Perch before the season closes in 6 days.

              I failed in my mission, but at least I did not blank, obviously, I was not using a wire leader, but I think this baby had not grown proper teeth yet…

                …nice pic Giles! Giving me the fever! Several boats out on the Upper Mississippi today. Still at least a month before ice out up north. 🙂

                      That's pretty wild @Filthy!  Imagine scuba diving and seeing baby Godzilla swimming next to you.

                          So, I have ordered another Kayak.  I cancelled last year's one.  This time I have gone for a pedal rather than paddle powered one.  Allows me to fish and maneuver at the same time.  It's US-made and the distribution centre for Europe is in the EU.  That model has been completely fucked up by Brexit, as they had to pay double duties.  So they are now importing directly from the USA into the UK, but supplies are low…I think I have a promise for one that is in the next container.

                          This is the one......

                                          Love the fact it even has break levers! Pretty cool invention mind you, but I don't think it would do much for my seafront street cred  😃

                                            @Giles I’ve seen videos with some rigs with an outrigger, fish finder, and pole holders.  Do you have any plans?

                                            Besides the bigger boat cliche, here are the other two…

                                            What does boat stand for?  Break Out Another Thousand

                                            What are the two happiest days of a boat owner’s life?  The day he gets the boat and the day he sells the boat…

                                            P.S.  I love the rods suspended like that.  I may have to borrow your idea.
