panko?

what is that?

It’s like Japanese breadcrumbs basically

ahh, that sounds good

You can get them at Publix

Oh wait

Publix is a southern thing

here is a picture of the Potomac river at the northern end of a trail called Difficult Run. I can ride it pretty much all the way from my house, but it is rather exhausting. For that reason, I have never bothered to bring a rod when ride this trail.

That’s a pretty nice view

I just looked in my ride logs, and its literally just ten miles from my place, with some 1500 feet in elevation change.

Sweet

This is where I fish

gorgeous!

Yeah

looks like good bass water. is it deep?

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

It’s the okeechobee waterway

It connects lake okeechobee to the ocean

I imagine you get a bit of salt there then?

or no?

It’s more brackish than fresh

gotcha.

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

nice. I would love to hook a tarpon or snook

Little tarpon are like acrobats

I have a 6wt fly reel, broke my rod but I am going to replace it. I imagine that is enough for tarpon?

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

so maybe not then xD

6 is way too low

10-12 size is better

oh jeez, I was thinking an 8

Nope

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

I think the record is 280

ye, okay 12wt it is

<:KEK:726877368601411624>

And world record snook is like 53 lbs,

jeez, i didnt think snook got that big
