Fishing Funny: Home Video Clips

There seems to be some scripted clips in this compilation but at the same time some of the more genuine clips definitely make me laugh. There is an interesting massage technique at 15s, a hungry little fella at 20s, and a great shot to the face at 1:09. I highly recommend watching the shot to the face a couple of times.

Huge Piranha

Here is a great picture sent to us from Acute Angling

Acute Angling sent this over to us and it is one large and in charge Piranha!  If you are interested in Amazon fishing trips or if you just want to see some sweet Peacock Bass and other cool amazon fish photos check out their website, it is a fun and informative site.  I can’t imagine catching a Piranha or Peacock Bass on the fly, it must be one an amazing experience.

Gear Review: Patagonia Trucker Hat

Patagonia has come out with two new amazing trucker hats. I guess this isn’t really a review, it is more of a “hey this is cool, check it out!” The new hats have the trout or tarpon logo with the Fitz Roy background. I think they are pretty awesome and I can’t wait to get my hands on one of them (or both).
