    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Vessel captain says it was an "unreel" catch

FREEPORT, Texas (AP) - Here's a fish story about the one that didn't get away, although the fishing boat captain may wish it had.

Jason Kresse told The Associated Press on Tuesday that it was "unreal" to see an 8-foot, 375-pound mako shark jump into his 25-foot boat and flop around for hours before dying.

A forklift was used to unload the shark Monday when the boat docked in Freeport, 55 miles south of Houston.

Kresse and two crewmen were fishing for red snapper, 50 miles into the Gulf of Mexico. He says fish guts were dumped into the water and the shark apparently went into a frenzy, launching itself into the boat.

Nobody was hurt.

The shark will be displayed at a seafood company.
