Sure would be nice to see those days again. I remember one day back in the 70s when almost every boat in the Destin fleet was balled up in a hundred acres or so just southwest of the pass. Half the kings we caught were on handlines with a big Clark Spoon tied to the two back cleats. The deckhand just bailed them into the box.
I'd be ashamed to catch so many now, back then it just seemed like it would last forever.People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.
If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
