Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

Just got this from my friend Bill..... He and I just love to brag about our kids.
LOL... Aloha, Stan
Stan ….
Just got a picture from my son Mike.
He just came thru Honolulu last week on his way to Guatemala
to help his brother in this fishing operations.
He stepped off the plane in GUA last Friday night
took his boat out Sat am to shake it down for customers starting Sunday.
So here he hasn’t seen those waters for 5 Mths,
he hits the GPS spot for the last Marlin he hooked 5mths ago,
60min later snap and hooked up, and 90min after that, they land and release
The fish in the attached PIC.
How big? At least 6 – 800 but look close….
I think it was a BLACK MARLIN. look a the pectoral fin.
Not uncommon, but they get Blues 50 to 1 Blacks.
“Tight Lines” and great fishing
Bill
