Today's work took me to St. Marks to work on a high speed job for a boat at Shield's Marina. While working, I decided to hang a pole over the side to see what might happen. Last time, it produced some nice reds and bass. This time, it produced numerous catfish, pinfish and this beast (from freelining a pinfish)......
Notice the right hand....a little bloody thanks to this bastad's teeth I started off the morning by getting stung by a dang hornet in the same hand

Highlight of the afternoon was watching a HUGE red come out from underneath the boat next to me and attack a small catfish I was reeling up!!!! Man, I would have liked to have had him

I guess I'll see where tomorrow takes me next

Might need a tetanus shot for that Gar

Yeah, that right hand looks a little swollen.

Tom you always make the most of of situations. Good for you.

So how did it fry up?

I can't believe you took that thing out of he water

That looks like a worker's comp claim to me.
