it's just the angle of the shot I guess, if it was a rhom it would have cut the line.

Wow...I should go fishing there. Maybe I'll catch a Snakehead

On a serious note...it does annoy me that people are dumping fish

if you read the thread a guy talks about a lake where you can catch pacu and oscars! but it is a serious matter this is why so many fish are outlawed in certain states people dumping pet fish into lakes thinking they will die in the cold of the winter but it doesnt always happen that way.

Very true to that. Its' sad that people still let go fish into the wild.

Big Pacu though.

haha...yah..the image of that pacu is burned into his mind now, only to manifest itself via a 10000000000 gallon setup .

I can't tell you how many large pacu get dropped off at my buddy's lfs....I guess release into the ecosystem is the other side of the coin .
