A Lesson in Deception

[Big Skyz]

I already posted the fish I intend to get mounted. However just for fun I decided to take one long armed photo just to show how much it can make a fish look deceptively big. Most of the Captains fish are pretty honest since he has arms like a T-Rex. Now granted it is a very big fish, but when long armed far enough it becomes gi-huge-gess. In other words don't believe everything you see...especially on the net. Things are definitely not always what they seem.

I see the fish is not the only one with increased um girth

That's what full pockets will do. I noticed that as well. Put about 50 lbs on me that aren't there. Had gloves in both front pockets of the jacket and my wallet and cell phone in the front pockets of my pants. Not complimentary I'd have to say.

I'll buy that, mind if I use it?

I use that same keys, cell phone, wallet, gloves, frying pan and kitchen sink in my pants pockets ruse to off-set the natural bulge in my "you know what" area.

Taking the picture from below like you did also makes them look bigger.

Funny you should post this. A friend of mine posted a pic just yesterday of an impossibly big rattlesnake.

Odd that you mentioned the rattlesnake....the snakes are out of hibernation, for sure....one of my wife's FB friend's sent this pic of her 6 yr. old son who got hit by a rattler in Texas, last weekend....I think that's his knee....he's in the Dell Children's Hosp. in Austin, in critical condition.

Looks like just below his knee. Stinking snakes, I'd like to kill'em all. That is one critter I have zero use for.

My theory on snakes is kill them all and let God sort it out.

Exactly!!!
