No, but as an avid fisherman in Central America I know EXACTLY what one is and have even run into them twice while out fishing. One was a pack of 60 an the other was 25 but most were water logged. Too funny man.

Oh shit...just looked it up online. I guess it means something different depending on where you are. Down here it means the white powder. They call them square groupers or white groupers. Fisherman get them ALL the time. As big as 600 kilos in a shrimp boat net. Nobody dumps weed overboard. LOL. Down here it's all about the yack. So much of it here that it's hard to fathom. You can get a gram for like $5 and a kilo for like $1500. 98-100% pure and uncut. Don't ask me how I know considering I've never even tried the stuff. :mrgreen:

Ok the year was 1967, we live in key largo, my brother(17) and I(18) (8)yes I'm old) were fishing off key largo in Dad boat. We were kids.
My little got a strike and it took for ever to get it in. We thought it was a sea turtle, illegal to catch, so I was gonna cut the line.
My brother wouldn't let me so I started backing the boat up till we saw the square grouper!!!

No one sells cut coke in Costa Rica. 50% of all coke leaving Colombia and Bolivia comes through here. Shit washes up on beaches all the time. The drug boats and runners don't stop in Panama cause there is to much U.S. military cause of the canal. Boat sizes are done by how many tons of coke it can hold. Seriously. 1 ton, 2 ton, etc.. They are just huge pongas with 4 outboards on the back and 2 channels in the middle and rear for 55 gallon fuel drums. Commercial fisherman run fuel out to the guys and then get paid in kilos. They take it home and dump it for whatever or break it up and try and make a little cash selling it for $20 and $50 bags to scum who then try and sell $5 bags.

Did you REALLY have to ask?
We kept it!
Now this was before plastic wrap, it's salt water, and soaked & weighed a ton.
So we lost about 30% but that's still better then we started with!
