With all the hunting threads... I figured we could talk some fishing.

1. What's your "bucket list " fish?
Mine: Snook, Tarpon, any type of Marlin
2. What's your favorite fish to catch?
Mine: Bass, bream a close second
3. Do you have any mounted fish, if so, what is it and how much did it weigh?
Me: None
4. What is your go to lure?
Mine: Heddon Baby Torpedo, red shad worm - bass. Beetle spin - bream
5. What's the biggest size fish you've caught?
Mine: Snapper around 20 lbs (weak)
6. Baitcast reel or spinning rod, what do you prefer?
Me: Baitcast. I don't own a spinning rod and reel
7. Do you have or have had a state/ national/ world record fish? Or someone in your family?
Me: No. Father had Al state record Bowfin for years. No longer

Some of this has been discussed but im bored as shite at work.
