Nope. He is essentially buying it from me. The last two winters I didn't go all the way down to Pompano. Stayed in Clearwater instead. Which was a mistake. I don't like it over there as much.

This said, we were bottom fishing the Gulf, which as you know is pretty shallow unless you are way, way out over there. Caught an octopus. I didn't know what it was. I didn't want to touch it, and I didn't.

Ended up selling it to the Greek restaurant. They out it in a laundry bag looking thing and beat it against the sidewalk to tenderize it. Asked me if I want some. No way. It was one of the grossest looking things I ever saw.

Google octopus again, maybe there’s a boat pic close by that you can use?

No, no. I'll get a pic as soon as I figure out how to black out my face.

Several pics. I'll figure out a way to make it irrefutable. I'm thinking pics of me up here bass fishing, and then pics of me in Florida on the Hatty. Same guy. That would be pretty tough to fake.

I'll see if I can't get a pic of Taco and me as well.

This is now a mission since I'm not playing golf today. Might take a couple of days, but I'm having fun.

Sure hope you and taco don’t sink off the coast with your 54’ in 10-12s. This has surely been entertaining and wasted 7 minutes of my life at work. Appreciate the entertainment.

So you own a 54 Hatteras and the best fishing picture you have is of an octopus on a stick? Then you want me to believe you sold it to a Greek joint?!?!?

You have a 54' Hatteras (that you don't have any photos of), took it illegally to Cuba with someone named Taco, you sell your catch in apparent single unit quantities that you catch in 10-12' seas to local seafood restaurants and you didn't know what the Outer Banks were.....

K keep me posted

Iowa Golfer this is how you make yourself credible... I just said my buddy was with Flip in the Bahamas in his 17' HB! Here's my proof of Ben being a good personal friend... I ate shite going in too. Fish with them a lot.
