How Not To Jump From A Boat

Here are Fishing Fury, we are dedicated to educating and entertaining. So here is our Fury tip of the day: When jumping off of a boat, don’t forget to jump!

The Tarpon Jump

Tarpon are without a doubt my favorite fish I have caught so far. What really sets them apart from other fish are their intense jumps. Its like they spin, twist and turn in every direction, all at once. Its hard explain, but this image almost captures it…

Tarpon Jumps Into Boat!

I’m certain this happens a lot, but its not every day that it gets caught on video! Tarpon are known for they aerial acrobatics, so stay out of their way!

Just one of the many reasons fishing is dangerous!

Snake Versus Fisherman

Well, we already know Bill Dance doesn’t like snakes, but this guy is completely terrified of them! He gets out of the boat as fast as the snake gets in!

What would you do if a snake climbed into your boat while you were fishing?

Giant Pike Illustration

I’ve read legendary tales of giant pike swimming European waters hundreds of years ago. I love the idea of there being humongous versions of the fish we catch today, but until I see some real evidence I can only assume that sea monsters like this simply don’t exist, and probably never have. I stumbled across the art work of John Sibbick the other day while doing some pike research and this illustration jumped right out at me. A giant pike from a Finnish folk tale.

It’s a great image, but if you want to be technical, its actually a muskie (judging from the pointed fins).
