    Sad that the websites let these fish down, mooneyes and goldeyes are super cool! They’re actually two distinct but very similar species (need to go to meristics and fin positioning to tell them apart.) They’re also the sole evolutionary remnants of a prehistoric family of fishes and have been around for a longgggg time. Just got past the fun facts but I already know the bait will be sweet!!😁

Go save it!!! My Sunday is...depressing. At least I went fishing today here in florida and got 4 18-21" flounder and a nice 19" redfish. So there's that. But no marling baits video on a Sunday is....blasphemy
