Default What Are The Odds?

Went fishing today and we had a fluke catch. It's hard to believe, but here it is...........
The fish already had a hook in it and she caught the eye of the swivel!

I was with a guy who caught a bucket in 120 ft of water. This one is much more difficult. Glad you got the picture.

Fluke catch?? That's just what she told you because she didn't want to show you up. She was actually aiming for it.

Given your location and prevelence of that breed of fish. Divided by the current speed ratio to sun aspect over the hook/gap quotient, i come up 341,798:1.

approx of course!

That is pretty wild...

Looks like the Gulf was in one of those very smooth, yet very hot summer days!

I hooked a skate like that in the surf at Nags Head about 13 years ago. The first hook was in the wing and mine in the swivel eye of that rig. Pulled the first one out and set it free.
