    Had an interesting day today.

    Went shark fishing, but we weren't having any luck, so we went to a bar (naturally). Then, got food at Cabbage Key, and decided to give it another hour fishing.

    No luck again, so we moved. Got a little shark after awhile, and then I thought I got snagged.. Nope, I accidentally hooked a huge sea turtle! I didn't want to leave a bunch of line stuck to it, so I brought it to the boat. It was like reeling in a parking meter with flippers! What an incredibly strong creature! I couldn't get the hook out, so I cut the line at the hook, and it took off.

    Just based on googling, it was probably between 200-300#. The shell was around 3' long.

    I finally got to really test out my big shark setup, and I was pretty damn impressed with it!

    Some pictures from when I was trying to remove the hook. My mom took a video of the whole thing.

    Our EH&S Manager showed up in a blinding green Hawaiian shirt, today.
    A joke as to the warmer weather out.

    After the conversation yesterday about Hawaiian shirts, I about shit myself when I saw him. :rofl:

    Edit: There it is. It's glorious!

    All we can really do is speculate, but with such vibrant colors and distracting pattern, one could easily conceal a 45 or smaller under there.

    Why stop at the lights when you could keep going along the fender and connect to the sliders?

    Received these photos from my African courier, thought you hooligans might like them.

    Again, I'm not jealous...definitely not.

    You should do a pulley system on the top of that bar so you can winch boulders out of the ground straight up. Or tree stumps. Or trees. And whatnot. :D

    Edit to add: you might need a couple of extra gussets if you want to pluck trees out of the ground.

    Dang! Kinda reminds me of Crush from Finding Nemo. Probably didn’t have an exit buddy.
