Default Rusty lures



I am now in the running for Toadfish Catching King. My guests caught
croakers, flounder, bluefish. No matter where we were, I
caught...toadfish.


Man, that is one nasty looking fish.

Yes, indeed. I was good at catching them in Florida, too.



Our garbage fish is the freshwater drum (sheephead).

I also toss carp.

Same here, but back in the '50s, my Dad considered them well worthy of
cleaning and eating, right along with the many catfish. Once in a while,
we'd keep a carp, too, but seldom. Only person, I've ever known who enjoyed
the cleaning of fish as much as the catching. Wish he was still with us.
