I used to build my own but now I find it easier to pay someone to build them for me..
lazy I know...
plus it gives the old fella in town something to do and gives him a bit of spare cash..

ty, I wish i had a pic of the 4 foot bull shark I caught a year ago here. I just shake my head when i see someone swimming laps up the beach coast at 6 in the evening. Being an angler you become familiar with the waters ya know. I sure as hell know when to be in these warm floridian waters and when not to,mornings and evenings as most of you will know is prime feeding for all fish not just sharks.

i spend all my spare time at or in the ocean.
live in the SW of WA, beautiful beaches and fishing. surf in the morn, fish all day, surf in the arvo
we have recently had increased restrictions on commercial fishing periods and rec fishing limits around here...(for the best) all our pink snapper and nanagai were getting plundered, mmm snapper.
Have recently been getting into free diving though, bought a 5ft spear gun n been loving it, anyone else a freedive or scuba fan?

wow those are some big sharks O4, I fought a huge wahoo off the coast of Aruba for an hour and fourtyfive minutes. I couldnt imagine fighting much longer than that it wears you out. I am hitting up a spot I know of for some big snook this weekend, snook are great game fish here in FL. Its not season for them but I almost always release my catch, all about that fight
by the way what kind of ignorant statement is that loo whatever your name is, I have fished florida waters since I was 5 and have landed pretty much every fish the gulf has to offer. And I always release sharks, i find them amazing and very beneficial to the marine eco.

wow thats a big old fat daddy cat I caught one when i was visiting my aunt in georgia, but no where near that size hahaha. O4 i love to catch tuna, we find them running off shore here in the spring b/c they spawn. they are usually way to deep to fish for me but occasionally when i go grouper fishing with friends we run into smaller schools
