Stomach contents of a 17# fish
 

Wife was bugging me to bring home a fresh eating-size fish . Last night I picked up couple and brought one home. The belly was pretty distended and after filleting it I took a look see....

2 lobsters and 30 baby scup about 2" long. (and it tried to eat a 9" Bernzy flaptail howdy as well)

Looks like she couldnt decide between the fish of the day or the lobster

That fish was eating good. Must be getting ready to head south.

One of you plug makers should make a "lobster Plug". I can't tell you how many of these I find in bass. I think it would work and I would love to be a field tester :wiggle: They make lobster flies but I need a 3oz plug that looks like a lobster running for its life.

Looks like a surf and turf meal for a fish.

I read thats what the mad russian used to use. live lobsters.

Funny, I've got this all designed in my head...this winter perhaps...

-spence

I'll make you one this winter mr sandman :D

:humpty:

were the lobsters hard or soft?

There are several lobster patterns for flies. Davey Skok makes a slobster and a baby fluke.

Just a large crwadad lure right?

Wow, I love gore. Musta just filled up on those, too -- they don't look all that digested.

:btu: :btu:What a glutton........I like it!! :hihi:

Bernzy

Jim,
Rec season for scup is closed - better not get caught with those 30 undersized scup ;)

MAN CAN YOU SAY 4 INCH WHITS STORM SHAD??????

i once bought a lobster jig. it was 4 o/z jig imbeaded in a 5'' rubber molded
lobster, the body was 5 in with the claws dagleing about7 oveall. line attached middle of the curled tail and hook was in middle of the claws. i caught a lot of fish on it til it got hungup one day and i lost it.
i got it inland at the army navy in brattlebourough vt. i have never seen another one like it and it was the only one they had.
seems though some of you rubber makers could produce one. it looked exactly like a real lobster. sure wish i could find one like it

:angel:

The thought actually crossed my mind, when I open it up and saw the contents, I said, "great, now I possess 2 undersize lobsters and 30 undersize scup (at $150/fish)." With my luck the constable will drive down my street just as I push them into the trashbag. :wall:

what's funny is the lobsters look steamed-lol. must have stopped by the local lobster house for....oh never mind.

Gee.... I thought it was my great idea? :wall:

Im thinking a 4 oz Darter... Painted up like a lobster with 2 claws and antanea dangling off the tial....

Black superstrike darter, but retreive it with a jerk here and there. Works for me when lobsters are present. I actually have thought of modifying one this winter to make it a little more realistic ....

2 oz Jig W/ a big rubber Craw?
 

I have to admit I've thought about it more than once.

the slobster....

Screw that piec 'o fuzz.... look at this!!!

black jig with black/orange uncle josh porker seems like a good choice to imitate a lobster.I know that color scheme works well for swimming plugs but it doesn't seem like it would have the action you would want.

You just know that'll catch!

This morning I cleaned a fish for a friend of mine, approx 15-18# and pulled 6 snapper blues 3-6.5" long and one partially digested mullet. It was unbelieveable, I never expected to find that much wedged in there.

Mullets make me go weak in the knees, especially when paired with an IROC-Z and a pearl white jacket like Don Johnson on Miami Vice. :lm:

haha! thats awsome.

How did that 'BCN song from the early 90's go? "Sittin' here, cruizin Revere Beach..." "Go Guido, Go Guido, Go"...

Sometime this fall Ill ask the sporting goods guys if they have a clue who their supplier was, couple of them have been there 20-30 years so you never know.

Whatever happened to Charles Laquedera, or whatever his name was, the morning guy on BCN who was always getting in the chit with the FCC?

Laquedera moved to another radio station when Corolyn Fox came over from HJY. Not to be confused with the afternnon guy.. what was his name.. Mark Pimento? I think he got busted for kiddy porn or somethin'.

A while back Charley Soares was giving a presentation at MSBA where he was going on about how since he finds so many lobsters in bass that he would try to make a lure like one. He had it there and I think it was made out of some kind of red/brown felt.

To his surprise, the only thing he said he ever caught with it was a cod.

How about some rubber lobsters. They are 3 1/2 ozs and approx. 8 1/2" long

those look good....u ever use em dave?

"saw one eat a rocking chair once."

April 1st one year way back when , BCN put Stern on mornings and Charles went to ZLX with his crew. A couple years ago he retired and went to Hawaii where his ex lived with his kids. he's an old fart now

Lobsters make good bait

Not yet, forgot I had them amidst all the other stuff in the garage.
