Default Going to Baltimore aquarium Weds

My son is going to the aquarium on a school field trip and they asked me to chaperone

I figure I should be able to catch at least 5-6 fish before the staff throws me out. I got two handlines - easy to hide.

I'm hoping I can slip through security. Few years ago - I volunteered as a diver to help clean the tanks. The staff called it insane - I called it an honest mistake. I only spear gunned the fish that looked sick . They did tell me to bring all my gear - seems to me they should have been more specific.

Not sure if I'm still on the national aquarium watch list. The incident in Alanta was 4 years ago. Hell, they advertised the largest fish in captivity - what did they think would happen ? I would have landed that brute if the fly gaff had not pulled free.

Should be a fun day - got enough cash hopefully for bail.

Let me know what the YP and picklefish are biting on.

In exchange, I will provide free wire leader for you to handline the Electric Eels. (But, I want Pics)

Marty,
Do you have a recipe for pre-tenderized baby seal? I heard they taste fishy (from the official PETA site).

Ahh; Jim, the trick for eliminating the terrible "fishy" taste is to change their diet. Most aquairium's or zoo's feed their seals cheap menhaden. We, in Maryland, don't have that problem. Because we have the Omega Protien plant in such close proximity. We feed our seals the "bycatch" of 12 inch rockfish, thus eliminating the "bad" taste.
Try them on the grill, delicious.
