Tarpon and… Orvis?
Ok, so here’s another gratuitous, lazy-@$$ video post. It’s time. Tight video. Amazing fish. And no, I do not want to go out and buy an Orvis reel now… not even a little bit. Wonder what kind of rods they were “blowing up”? Just askin’. Mirage Reel from SHALLOW WATER EXPEDITIONS on Vimeo. (Promo for [...]
The Most Interesting Guide of 2011 Returns for 2012
Some say he must return the sea every fortnight, to molt, and that his mating rituals, even by fish standards, are bizarre. Others say that, strangely, he speaks only in binary when he’s drunk . All we know is, he’s the most interesting guide in the world. * 01001001001000000110010001101111011011100010011101110100001000000110000101101100011101110110000101111001011100110010000001100111011001010111010000100000011101000110111100100000011001100110100101110011011010000010000001101101011110010111001101100101011011000110011000101100001000000110001001110101011101000010000001110111011010000110010101101110001000000100100100100000011001000110111100100000010010010010000001110010011001010110001101101111011011010110110101100101011011100110010000100000011101000110100001100101001000000111011101100001011101000110010101110010001000000110111101100110001000000110000100100000011110010110111101110101011011100110011100100000011011010110111101101111011011100010000001110100011010010110010001100101001011000010000001101000011000010110110001100110001000000110000100100000011011000110100101101101011001010010110000100000011000010010000001110011011100000111001001101001011001110010000001101111011001100010000001101101011010010110111001110100001011000010000001100001011011100110010000100000011101000110100001100101001000000111001101101100011010010110011101101000011101000010000001110111011010000110100101100110011001100010000001101111011001100010000001100010011011110110111001100101011001100110100101110011011010000010000001110011011011000110100101101101011001010010111000101110001011100000110100001010011100110111010001101001011100100010000001100111011001010110111001110100011011000111100100101100001000000110010001100101011000110110000101101110011101000010110000100000011000010110111001100100001000000110010101101110011010100110111101111001001011100000110100001010000011010000101001010011011101000110000101111001001000000111001101100001011011000111010001111001001000000110110101111001001000000110011001110010011010010110010101101110011001000111001100101110 ____________________ * Not familiar, check it out here.

Fridays w/ STIGGY
