Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job. ~Paul Schullery
There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965

Oh I get it. Us old timers never spoke of inches. If it wasn't 15# we didn't even mention it. I know, times have changed. This guy stopped me at the Canal last night and inquired as to how I did. I told him I had a couple of mid-teens and one around 20. He said "wow, those are small fish. I said "really, since when is a 20# fish a small fish? He said OH, I thought your were talking inches.  |

yup.. schoolies were schoolies... students or rats.. back when 16" was a "keeper".. 10 -15lbs means they were mediums.. and that was only for market terms..... everyone I knew called 'em bulls... not cows when they got worth talking about( and of coarse no one did until after the fact)... even if they were female.... |
A good run is better than a bad stand!
