I know you dive but I wonder if you fish much? In KW people used to troll for sea trout. Say they are hard to catch but tasty if you catch some. If you have experience What bait would ya suggest?

Tyler, you can't beat meat, I always use either ballyhoo or live bait.... The

Happy April Fools day to all of you out there, especially the lurkers who I hope took the last 3 weeks seriously.

Thanks also to everyone who posted ( I sent each a PM to let them know it's a joke) this thread was to advertise the 1715 cookout I managed to get the word COOKOUT spelt in words about 10 times in the thread BVI even managed once ( lightweight that he is)

The footage was all real from HMS Southampton near to Conception Little San Salvador I dived at the end of last year ( a little white lie there). I'll take you if you are ever out this way.

So all the best to you all and thanks for not spoiling a fun thread,

SEE YOU AT THE 300th ANNIVERSARY COOKOUT, I'll buy you a beer ( maybe)

 

[old man]

Good one Kevin. I like the label.

 

[SADS 669]

You should, your buying!! By the way this bell is on the sailboat I found floating abandoned so it is a treasure bell!

 

[GreenHiker]

Great prank. It was fun to see the new people hit the bait each day. The fact that you texted each of us was very thoughtful.

Thanks for sharing the video! Happy April, fellow Fools! ;-)
