I cut into that thing at it reminded me of an old abcess on the back of a homeless guy that popped as he sat down on my stretcher years ago. The colors of the puss coming out of that man's back was what the meat looked like and smelled just as bad!

if you ate turds all day thats what you'd smell like!! LOL!!

I just want to insure all my friends here at SC don't do what I did and cut into that thing......really bad!!!

cant seem to get that visual out of my head now.

I got the pics of that thing somewhere if ya'll want me to post it. I think I have some of the decapitation in I-10 also from the Grosse Tete accident in 2001. Come to think of it, I saw the pics of the burned bodies last week when I was cleaning out my old truck. I know, I'm a sick SOB, but the job made me that way!

Yep, turn hustlers sit at the black water outlet and eat the turds that come out.

Turd Hustlers. I have tried to use them for bait and NOTHING will eat them not even Sharks.

That looks alot like the fish we had trouble with a few weeks ago 60 miles offshore. Everytime I tried to let my bait sink for mangroves those fish would tear it up and keep it on top of water. It was frustrating to see the mangroves and not be able to get to them. Anyone have this trouble before and is there a solution?
