Simon, we are going to miss fishing with you out of Bunkys, this spring. penciled in a trip on The Red Osprey, for next week. Trying to confirm it with Bunkys, but keep missing them by phone. Photos of the oystering process are great!!
^Simon, I think he is questioning whether you can ;)
Be a man hand tongs only.
