My other passion... Fishing!
Went out today to catch some Cobra Snake heads. They are an exotic species from Thailand that has flourished here in South Florida. I think that they are by far the most interesting freshwater fish to catch! The go absolutly nuts when hooked... they jump, roll like an alligator or just all out run! Well heres some pics of the ones i caught yesturday and today...
If you fish post your pics here! Let see what you got!

Peacock bass are a lot of fun! I lost a really nice one today :( They probably dont do to well in Daytona... They cant survive cold winter nights. I usually have to drive down to broward to catch them...
Re: My other passion... Fishing!
I went flounder gigging with my brother and gigged this monster, right when we were about to give up, only one caught that night.
Sorry for the camera phone pics.

Those Snakeheads look a lot like the Bowfin we catch here in the northeast...just a different shaped head.

Bass fishing is my passion. Here is a 5lb from last spring caught on Lake Anna, Va.
The biggest bass i ever caught was a 9 1/2 lb that I caught in the canals that run thru Disney World. I don't have that pic digtal so I can't post. Crazy fishing in the ponds,lakes and canals in DW. In a 2 hr time span I caught and released about 30 bass ranging from 2 1/2 to about 4 lbs. it was awesome.
We have those snakeheads up here and they are a taking over the Potomac river.
