Does this fish make me look Thinner?

[joebuck]

Should have taken a picture of all the gar at the pipe heads...10-20-30 sometimes. They hang around eating bait fish coming through the culvert...i dont waste my time shooting them because i am waiting on the big fish to jump 10' in front of me.  Now my 10 year old....different story... he 's got to have tennis elbow this morning....

[T-Bowhunter]

Those are some huge fish!

[JohnV]

Joey, are you shooting koi out of those Japanese garden ponds again?

[joebuck]

Johnny V....i had to look up "koi".....only you would know that spelling.....redneck spelling is Coy or Trotline bait

[Marty]

Ate you giving a seminar on these anytime soon? Ate you making fish calls now?

[Jayrod]

What hawgs...good shooting!!

[joebuck]

i could but it would be short.....stand on top of the culvert, and shoot as quick as you can when they jump...You be a natural Marty with your 20" snap shot

Good job Joebuck, but I have to ask, do you always rest the tip of your arrow against your crotch like that?
  A new dad named "Pop" is a fitting name but has to be some sort of redneck record. Marty has a cousin who became a pop at 15 years old.

I hope that's not the pointy end your fishing arrow you've got resting next to "the boys" (in the second picture)!!!

Wow...those are big fish. Biggie could probably hit one of those.RC

[joebuck]

Hence the the grimace! Gene.

RC ..biggie could if he had his ole Longhunter back

Pop is looking gray and so are you my friend. Nice fish.

Looks like those ab ripper tapes I sent you are paying off too.

Tell Hayes I said " good shooting". DB

Joey: Those are good'uns. I used to shoot them all the time in the Des Moines River in May. The next couple weeks should be the peak. I've shot some big ones. The only one I weighed was 33 lbs. but I too got an arrow into a monster. I got to see him and he had to be over 80 lbs. I used to fish for cobia in FL and had an idea what I was looking at. He cleaned my clock. He ended up getting around a log and snapping my solid fiberglass shaft right off just behind the fish point. It was like hooking Amtrak going through on a non-scheduled stop. By the way, I did try fileting a couple 20 lbers. I kept the top white meat and threw away the darker flesh. In all honesty it wasn't bad at all. I've eaten store-bought fish that were stronger tasting. I heard they occasionally get over 100 lbs. Now one of those would even make me look thinner. UB

Nice shooting! Those would be a big problem on the jet ski crowd here in Florida..I had a 1 1/2 pound Mullet hit me in the chest one night on Lake George, I was in my Jon Boat going about 20 mph. One of those monsters would have knocked me out of the boat..

[Lefty]

Nice fish!  We catch a bunch of them, snagging for spoonbill.  One friend of mine has been canning the heck out of them and they are really good.  Another friend, scored up some and fried it and said it was good too, very mild tasting he said.

[Mudd]

The ones a friend fed me tasted a lot like walleye.

They are fun to shoot!!

Good shooting!!

God bless,Mudd

[joebuck]

Well I just might have to dip one in mustard and catfish meal and deep fry a nugget up

[RecurveRookie]

I seen them fish on River Monsters.  They knock you outta the boat if they hit you when you're going fast.  You might outta wear a "Fish Helmet" like the Vikings had, just to be safe! Lol  Oh yeah......great job on stickin' them nice fish!

[Duckbutt]
