How hard were those butts to catch with that ultra light spinning reel? I know you used the hammer to knock them out.

Looking good keep up the good work.

everything looks good, I don't know about raping with tin foil!

sounds painfull! LOL.

I would recomend you make up the sandwiches, because, 60 lbs of butts nets about 30-32 lbs of meat, and even at 1/4 lb per sammy is only 120 people, and most will want more than 1/4 lb. Thats what I have found anyways.

Keep the procession going, the pulling can be a pain in the .........back!

40-45% ain't unheard of... especially after pulling...fat is discarded.
