Ah Stick Boat Fishing

The open sea...

Wind in your hair and salt in your lungs..

The horizon off your bow.... well off your 360.

Freezing your XXXX at night on the open ocean... baking on windless sunny days

Chasing hoppy hops around just ahead of poachers.

That's the life of Melville...

Note: Just ribbin ya Tom

I hate to point...

Tom,

What's with the pec. fin?

Is this an area of concern?

This is the runt of the batch.
It will test my skills to the limit (a challenge to say the least)

I have faith in the pectral fin healing/the size will be the hardest challenge.
We will see (may the fish gods come to the rescue)

I put a little food in with them today....6-8 pellets
The food is to big for the (runt) T.Showa to eat....The medium wheatgerm...
Couldn't get mouth open big enough.
