Ahhh...one Snake`s better than none!
 
Was off last week and man with the different fronts and storms, the bite was pretty tough all week.

Had a few hours last Friday, so I blew down into those swamps......way, way down in South Jersey with the `Yak to chase some Snakeheads. (My fave controversial fishy! haha!)

Had quite a few "blow-ups" with the frog....... kinda figured I might`ve been in a pack `Fins as they will react quite often like this. Bowfins can be a tad harder to hook....sometimes. So I switched to a smaller Jawbone Mouse......

And nailed this Toothy fella right off the bat and lost a monster `Snake right at my `Yak!

All & all a fun few hours playin` in that mucky-murky-ass swamp!

Winner, Winner, Snakehead Dinner!

For real, they're showing up on gourmet restaurant menus in the DC/VA area. Nice job, Ken! I can't even imagine landing one of those Swamp Things in a kayak!

Thanks Fred- Yea ..... it`s a little bit of a challenge in a `Yak with the swamp & all....... but then it can get real tricky when ya flip a `Snake or `Fin in your `Yak...... `Cause they got a mouth full of chompers and ya gotta make sure they don`t go for a "Nut-Samich" when they`re layin` between your legs in that `yak!!! Ouch!!!! HaHa!!!!
