Just read a thread on another fishin site.....
I'm sure you are mistaken tbob, cause I'm pretty sure there is ONLY ONE fishin' website!!
Well at least only one that matters anyway and is basically free of the whiners and crybabies and is not over regulated and is FREE!
WINNER: FATHER OF THE YEAR AWARD.
Then you may wonder why his daughter looks less than thrilled.
14 year old Coral Wira was sitting in a boat while her father fished.
Suddenly she saw a silver flash in the air.
The barracuda had thrown the hook and grabbed her arm.
Father managed to kill the fish with a knife in the head, but Coral, needed 51 stitches.
He felt the need to pose for photos before taking her to hospital!
