Nice, Fat Burbot

[DiabeticKripple]

went fishing with a few forum members here, caught a 12 inch burb myself, and another caught ~6lb fat burb.

Nice burb Ogre

We'll have to try again a few more times and catch one giant mother.

I'll pick up some real firewood this week.

BTW. That burb had 4 more burbs in it's belly!

So would that count as catching five fish?

[Geezle]

Nice burb!

[WayneChristie]

I told you eating river fish would make you radioactive look at you glow! was that your first burb Bill?

[ogre]

First this season :-)
Company was great, I like fishing with AO members. We'll get the posse together again soon, right BeeGuy?

LOL, that would be one way to pad my fish count, wouldn't it.

I had fun last night boys. We should definitely go out again next Friday. The fat burbot in the picture tasted fantastic.

[BeeGuy]

Yup, we got the other half simmering in a Burb Tagine.

I pulled the otoliths out and put them under the scope.

My estimate is that male is in his 8th or 9th year.

Good burbot, heard they taste great.

Past tense,,, as in his 8th or 9th year,,,, would now be, was in his 8th or 9th year,,, however, he is now being digested.

Ao conditions the best of us to bad spelling and such.

He is still in his 8th or 9th year.

He's just not going to make it to his 10th due to a poor choice in forage.

Was that one caught where I think it was caught, BeeGuy?

They must have just stocked it. Looks like a nice brood there

[Gust]

Close by, but a bit further out to sea. Skiwili and I were rigged up for Bull Sharks given that they spawn in the delta this time of year.

They were nibbling but couldnt get any to commit.
