A 31.5 in. Snook my friend caught back in May

Anyone here from South Florida?

Baby Bonita?

@sixfivebyfiftyfive actually it’s a Mayan Cichlid. Invasive species.

The ocean

My dude Gary is strapped

Muskie?

I’m not a yankee, but even I don’t know what that is

I was watching the Gators game yesterday and at halftime it showed Sarah Fuller’s kickoff, and I thought, “if you’re a soccer player, shouldn’t you be able to kick farther than that?” I also thought it was a squib kick.

I have nothing against her, but god that was a bad kick

LET’S GO. I guessed it and I’m from South Florida

EXACTLY

Yep. South Florida. We just had a cold front come through but the water still felt like a bathtub

I wish I got snow here

@sixfivebyfiftyfive where are you from?

My biggest bass ever

Nice

That bass was probably about a 4 pounder and I caught it on some cheap Amazon crankbait my friend had

I know it’s so weird

Hey what does NOVA stand for by the way?

Ah I see

Do you have Snakehead up there?

I think I read somewhere that they live from Florida all the way up to Maryland

Dang

Do you catch them?

Oh well if you do, eat it. I’ve tried it before and it’s delicious

Pan fry a snakehead, throw some panko on it and it’s amazing

It’s like Japanese breadcrumbs basically

You can get them at Publix

Oh wait

Publix is a southern thing

That’s a pretty nice view

Sweet

This is where I fish

Yeah

It’s not super deep, and it’s ok for bass

It’s the okeechobee waterway

It connects lake okeechobee to the ocean

It’s more brackish than fresh

We get Jacks, Snook, Tarpon, Snakehead, Catfish, Mayan Cichlids, freshwater eels, Croakers, Mullet, Shad, etc.

But the bite there has been mad slow

So I’ve been bass fishing lately behind my house

Little tarpon are like acrobats

Snook are like bass on steroids, and tarpon are snook on steroids

6 is way too low

10-12 size is better

Nope

Oh and tarpon get up to 200 pounds so...

I think the record is 280

And world record snook is like 53 lbs,

I think the world record was in Costa Rica

Dude when I fish this place and a tarpon swallows a mullet, it sounds like somebody threw a cinder block in water

Drought?

Can’t relate

It’s constantly wet here

The humidity was like 96% a while back

In like august

I hate humidity

Hey, at least Texas gets cold

I get hot and muggy

The fish here bite year round

We had a cold front yesterday and the pond water was like a bathtub

DURING A COLD FRONT
