   Hook Ideas

   When I started hunting deer as a kid in Oregon, I was introduced to a similar tradition. “After you shoot it, you can eat the heart.” I “can” eat the heart? Gee, thanks. Here I’ve been sitting, wondering if you’d let me eat the heart, and now all my dreams are coming true!

   It kind of tells you about the people I grew up with. They considered it a right of passage, and one I should be looking forward to. Eventually, I got my deer, but was not required to eat the heart. Thankfully, I wasn’t subjected to ridicule either.

   I’d probably tackle a squishy tuna heart though. I’m not sure if I could jam my finger into the gill slit and remove the still beating organ from the fish however. That was a bit macabre for even me.

   If the deckhand goes in there and grabs it, I may not paint myself with it like the guy in the video, but I’ll throw down. Great to fish with you yesterday buddy. Nice to catch up. Take care
