Prehistoric Soul Hoops (11/30)

I had a dozen heavy hoops made to my specs and they have been killing the bugs!  The only issue is they start to get really heavy by the third set.




My buddy and I headed out for another night of hooping.  Strike while the iron is hot and it was the last of my lobster bait in the freezer.



We drop the hoops and let them sit for about 75 minutes.  We were just waiting for it to get dark....



Well, we crushed it with bugs.  The biggest net of the night had 46 in it!  3 legals in here and about 20 that were only short by a 1/8th of an inch or less!



The fleas were everywhere.  I think I probably had 1000 in my boat by nights end.



Soon as the current picked up, the crawl slowed, but we ended up with 310 bugs on the white board.  Not bad for pulling 4 sets of only 7 hoops!



We got our limits and only threw back 2 other legals, so it was mostly a small bug crawl... but we got our limit.



Next day, I was jonze-ing for a Mc Rib... and the Cucaracha Coach came a crawling!



Hahaha... My boats is trashed from all of the lobster fishing.  Time to start fishing again.

Thanks for reading!
You can't catch them from your computer chair.
