I Haven't Done This in Years

This was such an awesome trip. Best part about it was I finally got the time to hang out with some childhood friends of mine and go out and catch some big fish. We use to chase these things all the time when we was in high school, but life tends to put you on different paths. So grateful we was able to reconnect and have a great time doing it.

Catching up on your videos. What a great trip. Just had spinal fusion surgery yesterday its killing my back just watching you. I think I need another pain pill 💊

[@mickaburkhart14]

LOL yeah it was quite the workout getting them in the boat.

[@royschlickeisen2539]

👍👍👍👍👍what a strange looking fish but a great 🎣 video guys.

[@mickaburkhart14]

Thank you. Yeah a little weird but dang good eating.

[@tommymadden9746]

Man that's some serious fish. Doing what you used to do when you were a kid sometimes is therapeutic. Great video

[@mickaburkhart14]

Thank you. Yeah I think it is as well. Getting back to your roots is what I love.

[@travishanger]

[@mickaburkhart14]

Thank you for that. Yeah it's something I've been wanting to do for awhile. I'm happy I was able to get there.

I would of loved to meet you and just say hey. Grest video brother.

[@bjcoutdoors]

[@kevinssilentfishing7292]

That snagging would kill my back.

[@mickaburkhart14]

Lol oh it definitely killed mine.

[@michaelknight9112]

[@mickaburkhart14]

[@ericl9851]

[@billylusk3515]

How awesome is that! Did you keep em all?

[@mickaburkhart14]

Thank you. Yes we did. Got some good eating for awhile 😆.

[@catlifeoutdoors6369]

I’m in that area, never could acquire a taste for them

[@mickaburkhart14]

Really. They definitely have to be cleaned really well. I take off all the red meat and fat. After that they are pretty good.

[@catlifeoutdoors6369]

Did you ever get to do any gigging?

[@mickaburkhart14]

@@catlifeoutdoors6369 yeah I do it quite a bit around where I live.

[@JamesSpen]

[@mickaburkhart14]
