They were walking around with champion bootles.

How many poles did they have out?

That boat was out fit to an extreme.

The fish was filleted and the anglers took the meat.

Can you even eat a marlin? it's too big to stuff unless you put it in a meuseum

They done took Grampaw out! I’d feel bad removing something that old. How old could that fish be?

 

[Magus]

As old as me anyway.
