    Saltwater Bucket List

    Three of the igfa grand slams - requires 3. Super slam is 4 in the same day.

    1) Salt water flats: bonefish, tarpon, permit, snook.
    2) Tuna: yellowfin, bluefin, bigeye, albacore
    3) Billfish: blue marlin, black marlin, white marlin, striped marlin,
    sailfish, swordfish or spearfish
    Screw it. Let's ride.

    Those lists sound like a day that your arms would be begging for mercy!

    Doesn't count for IGFA as far as I know, but danged if we didn't have fun doing it...
    When my Grandfather and I were last in Alaska, we both hit what the lodge there referred to as their Grand Slam.
    We each landed a King, Pink, Sockeye, Coho & Chum salmon, all in the same day.

    A shout out for 'Kingfisher Charters' in Sitka, AK!

    Question:
    on the GSPPier what will landing a hardhead catfish, a pinfish and a stingray all in the same day get you?
















    Answer:
    Laughed at! :-) LOL




    For many, many years my bucket list has been to land a bonefish, permit & snook all in the same day on UL spin.
    oh, and throw in a 'flag' yellowtail snapper for supper! ;-)
