Found in gansett yesterday
 
This is no "bull" either. I was walking along the rocks yesterday in a mid bay location when I came across what looked to be the lower leg of a large mammal. Had to be a cow, or something of the like. Didn't get any pics, but the hoof was clearly identifiable, as was about 30" of leg. Was cut clean up to where the knee would have been. I just wanted to share that with everyone. :eek: If anyone is looking for it, shoot me a pm. True story. Maybe one for the scuppers, sorry John.

Moose maybe?

Back Beach 11-09-2006 02:50 PM

Definitely a heiffer. About 3-4" in diameter. Maybe discarded off the side of a boat?

spence 11-09-2006 02:53 PM

Probably one of Nebe's chunks...big chunk = big fish.

I didnt have an Easter Roast to use as shark bait...
did you find the other half of my chain-leader and hook?
I figured since there were seals around, Jaws couldn't be far behind....

Yeah I guess dropping a cow leg out of your plug bag would be far more likely.

Nebe 11-09-2006 03:40 PM

too funny :hihi:

MarshCappa 11-09-2006 04:56 PM

New meaning for the term "chunking". Bizarre!

Christian 11-09-2006 05:32 PM

if you fish inner boston harbor, i heard you can find REAL legs!!!!

Pt.JudeJoe 11-09-2006 05:48 PM

Probably a deer ,they swim around and sometime don't make it.

beamie 11-09-2006 06:06 PM

I heard you caught him fishing in Bart's cove without permission.:behead:



Casey, I was looking for seashells. If anyone wants to know the location of the limb, send me a Pm. Maybe one of you Gansett townies can get a pic of it and post it here for i.d. before the rats get it. Was still pretty fresh.:yak:

Reminds me of the joke about the farmer with a 3 legged pig.
A tourist asked why the pig had only 3 legs.

The farmers reply was "A pig this good you don't eat all at once!"

:scream: :hihi: :rotf3:

Raider Ronnie's Shark Chum
 
Ronnie is just practicing for the OB shark tourney next year, seeing what mammal works and what doesn't.

striprman 11-10-2006 12:12 PM

"lean beef" ?

RIROCKHOUND 11-10-2006 12:39 PM

where is is Mike? PM me...
doubt I'll get there, but maybe...

baldwin 11-10-2006 12:39 PM

Doesn't surprise me at all. I've heard many a stiper fisherman speak of catching cows. Maybe a sea cow.
