Never buy minnows again

I went down to my favorite pier on lunchbreak...just to check it out. I could see bait in the water....but little did I know how much was there. I literally couldn't pull my lure through the water without snagging bait along the whole pier....which would have been ok, except it really effs up the action of a lure or spoon with hooks full of minnows.

It's gonna be a banner year!







I don't always snag fish, but when I do...
I choose Little Cleos

I'm the best looking smartest snagging poacher alive...

    Yeah I know....but as soon as I knew they were foul hooked I tried to break off.

    As required by law...all foul hook minnows were released

    yeah slick u gotta break those things off man. tighten up the drag and let them rip your lure off. if they all tried at once, maybe they could swim away with it! do u have no decency? poor little sardines.

    Keep in mind that your offering to the fish is among all those.

    Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

    About a dollar fifty cent worth at a certain bait shop (entrance to the peninsula).
