     F'ng A !   Congrats on the first catch !!!      LMAO with that first photo of the fish half decapitated...   sure wish there was  video of you attacking it.

   I can't get that picture of you eating underwater out of my head ...  You're some kinda sea creature.    Half sea otter, half man.         

 

    BTW,  does twisting the tail like that count?    Judges ???
