Re: FAVORITE FISH to catch and why
I'm all in. Definately something I'd like to experience first hand Seabear.

Last spring some of the tuna chasing our poppers were 300-400 pounds 
I hooked up twice and both times the fish spit the hook on the initial run.
It was strange how happy I was to lose those fish, but I knew I would have been in big trouble, lol
Maybe this fall you can join me for an inshore BFT casting trip, if for nothing less than experiencing the "thrill of the hunt", and then you can say you've tried it before.  |
