Let's talk gaffs

[WAHOONBOX]

Box, my man, I still dissagree with the placement of your gaff but if it works for you then cool. Carom, dude don't worry my friend, I will make you several. Calcutta and monster hooks with the barb ground off, served with seine twine and fiberglassed long range style. Since you are working so hard on the Silver Scale thing it will be my gratuity to you as you work your ass off with this new venture thing wit no pay, wait a minute, should have posted this on the tipping a mate bs thread

YA MOST CERTAINLY DON'T HAVE TO AGREE WITH ME EL CAPITANO .....THIS SPORT IS ALL ABOUT WHAT WORKS FOR THE INDIVIDUAL AND THE FINAL VERDICT....AND THAT IS WHAT THE GAME IS ABOUT ..........MEATNBOX

THE SMALL GAFF HOOK SIZE GOING INTO THE BELLY MEAT DESTROYS NO FLESH PER SAY...EASILY CONTROLLED....AND NOT TO HEAVY WHILE STRETCHED OUT ... AND WHEN A GAFF IS PLACED AROUND THE CENTERLINE AREA ...THE FISH IS MUCH EASIER FOR ME TO LIFT HEAVIER FISH OVER THE SIDE......BRINGING ONE IN HEAD FIRST ALWAYS REQUIRES DRAGGING A SLAB OF MEAT OVER THE GUNNEL AND BANGING IT ON TO THE DECK .......WITH MY WAY I CAN EASILY GET HER OVER THE RAIL AND NOW IT'S PHOTO TIME

JUST MY WAY AND CERTAINLY NOT THE ONLY WAY

NOW THINKING BACK OVER THE YEARS.....JUST HOW MANY YELLOWFINS, BLACKFINS, MAHIS, WAHOOS, KINGS COBIA, RAINBOWS DID COME OVER THE RAIL WITH A HOLE PUNCHED IN DA GUT....????......

ALL OF A SUDDEN A FRIGHTENING THOUGHT JUST SWIRLED THREW MY HEAD....I GUESS I COULD BE THIOUGHT OF AS AN ...OFFSHORE SERIAL KILLER ....

SCAREY......VERY SCAREY.....AT LEAST THATS WHAT THE VICTIMS THOUGHT.
