  1. For sure. I’ve also eaten a lot of 3+ yo deer sausage. I learned a long time ago who likes what and who’s happy to take some of the excess.
  2. I don’t know a single person who participates in wanton waste, no worries there. I’ll have a fish fry in a week or two with the neighbors, and we sent a bunch home with some guys from Fl who can’t keep trout. Me and my partner, at MOST we’ll keep 3 trout every other trip (before last years freeze)…our trout fishery is in poor shape. I don’t fuck with reds but we’re in good shape there. I don’t catch many flounder because I’m a spook junkie, but will keep when I do because they are delicious and they are in good shape. Now, for the paradise. Most of these were pics I took of our partnering skiff. Hope I’ll get some from my buddies snapping some of our skiff. I can only recall a few fish out touts, everything else is spooks and skitterwalks. Big ass bull on spook jr Back to doing what bulls do This was first 4 hours. Final tally for the AM was 88 trout, 14 reds, 9 flounder and 2 pompano. I think our 2 skiffs made up for all but a handful of the fish. We didn’t keep under 15” unless the fish was in bad shape. You were either on them or it was tough, tough fishing. Wx went from 0 to 10 out of N at noon, to 22 out of N by 1600. Moved to Cat island that afternoon and fished around there. Picked some fish up here and there but wasn’t anything like Chandy, though that pressure spike probably had them on lock. Left a deposit for first week in Oct ‘24. Overall was a good trip. Sucked we only got to fish about 25% of what we should have, and once you were on them there wasn’t any stopping. I’ve been wanting to make this trip since I got a copy of plugger when I was a teen, but can’t fight Wx. It’s hard to imagine how much pressure these fish are under out there and still so plentiful. While a good day for our 2 skiffs, this wasn’t anything for overall charter. Mind bottling.
  3. I’ll doctor some of them up and share some better individual fish pics. 4 out of the 10 guys (my little college/tournament group) crushed it. The rest of the group did OK, but was slow. The best thing was the lack of “little” fish. I think I only threw back 4 that were “LA fish”.
  4. Well, in light of the last several posts, I’ll keep the pics to myself, but just returned from our Chandeleur trip. Of course the biggest front of the year blew in for day 2 of a trip planned 9 months ago. Fished Cat island in sustained 20+ Gusting over 30 yesterday with limited success. Only got to fish Chandy from 0700 to 1400 on Monday but it was everything Grigar always wrote that it was. All top water. Under 15” was only 1 to every 10 Texas/Miss slot. Probably 40% or better from 17-22”. Even a massive bull red on super spook. Cannot wait to return and I can only imagine what 2 full days would look like.
  5. A 6 that size is very cool and would likely win the big 6 category at Muy. One big six is really cool. A lineage of them less so
  6. I don’t need to catch him in anything. Aside from a punchline, doubt we’ll ever hear his name again. Whether he was born to be in it, or otherwise.
  7. Well he went from “I’m 2nd friendly” to “now that it’s affected me, [hell yeah] I’m coming to take ones I deem apropos away from you”. Which begs the question, why didn’t he care about the kids, adults, communities affected by those specific arms before it “hit home”? Did he care, but decided it wasn’t good for his career, so he instead chose to be cowardly, and was untruthful? I made a similar statement (I believe it’s human nature, after all) and my statement has been misconstrued and twisted in an attempt to continually call me out on these threads. I couldn’t gaf, really, but I do find it curious. I believe it’s because Beto’s politics are palatable for you, so it’s A-ok for him. My politics are not, so it’s ghoulish.
  8. I’m pretty sure he made contradictory statements just a few weeks apart from the events, actually. And he rightfully lost his support and likely his political career for next decade.
  9. I assume you felt the same when Beto did this, in the literal exact same manner?
  10. Advantage to having skills greater than existing and pushing buttons, I suppose.
  11. He certainly thinks he does.
  12. Not really. Take some heat off our schools and ERs for a fucking second.
  13. Debatable. Sounds like they wanted 40% and got 25? Can’t move those plants to Mexico fast enough.
  14. You might want to check out what $136/hr comes to.
  15. Well, I’ve owned decent amounts of most of them when it makes sense. Curious you assume that most of their button pushers aren’t shareholders as well.
  16. I’m not sure about that. As someone who requires a 3/4-1ton for real life, I don’t see them being replaced. We’ll just grit our teeth, understand your 100k would probably be 70 without the leaches, vote accordingly, and keep hoping they get theirs.
  17. Also, a major difference between the groups. One can be cut loose in a moments notice and puts in effort accordingly. The other knows you don’t want to fuck with a grievance and can’t really cut them loose, and works accordingly. I suspect we’ll continue to see more vehicles built in the south, and Mexico, and we can point and laugh at these motherfuckers that have no one to blame but themselves.
  18. You’ll have to stop. I’ve been unable to sleep since.
  19. yeah they're probably in good shape for everyone but Miss and LSU. I hope both of those are end of season bloodlettings for aggy. 49-17 types.
  20. Maybe. As usual, it will be the poors that are affected.
  21. You seem to think non union employees would care more about your business than union employees do. You're wrong. None of them care. We can agree to disagree, I suppose. My experience is obviously different than yours, all while literally working alongside and managing both groups daily.
  22. I deal with unions all over the country, some are better than others. It’s the locals that give us the most issues, not as much my travelers. But 100% of the guys we get for fraud are our book carrying guys. We’ll eventually acquire someone and split it up. Just a game of cat and mouse and the juice isn’t worth the squeeze. Irony? Or you’re an expert in union labor too?
  23. Ammo is going up 20-50% every year or so, more on the auction sites. Pretty good to have around imo.
  24. I will for now. Politicians want power, there will be D’s that trend towards and become the new right. They will not be Trumpy, and they will thirst for power and wealth, and they will get elected. Whole country moves to the left a bit, and we start over. Same as it ever way.
  25. For sure. I'm not voting for the Trump side, and I'd rather hammer a railroad spike into my dick than pull the lever for any Democrat I've ever seen.
