Thread: Do the fish stand a chance?

Pier#r's sonar advancements is a great one. Did y'all know most blue marlin caught in these tournaments are "seen" with sonar before they put the live tuna in front of it?

Good one! Did y'all know that most of the Blue Marlin caught in these tournaments are "seen" with advanced sonar prior to being fed a live tuna on a hook?

Pier carts have been around pier fishing since before I was.
But aluminum pier carts revolutionized pier & especially shore fishing with the addition of wide low pressure tires.
Now the big thing is 4-wheel beach carts that people haul everything out on the beach but the kitchen sink.

Fishbites (and Fishgum) are relatively much newer. but even Fishbites has been around the GSPPier for 25 years!
I knew it was something special the first time I used in the year 2000.
Adding the innovation of colored dyes and flavors (think orange shrimp and sandflea) was a leap in the technology.
Whiting candy and pinfish could not pull it off the hook.
I remember turning Sunshine on to some of it one day and she came back later "You got any more of that free cheese?" LOL!

cellphones!

I still got one of Mr. Herndons old carts out in the shed! The Tommy Nelson dolly cart is the way to go but don’t forget Igloo over the shoulder Cool thread Tom!
