Dead stuff found while fishing (beware gross picture)

[storminsteve]

I don't care what anyone says I will win this year. Any of you other googans want to try and catch up, go right ahead it's a free country. One of the MANY dead things I have been finding. This was a striped bass larger than keeper size. It already had the gill cut. Wonder why it was laying there to rot?
Where are Monty's dead things, from 2018? Sound of crickets!

Nice, first post for 2018....gotta start somewhere.
I am fishing new areas the start of this year where nothing is dead. So you get the head start which you really, really need.
Do not worry, the Island always comes through with the BEST DEAD STUFF.

I consider you a worthy adversary, let the dead things pic collection begin! Good luck to you as well.

I think I am a bit more than a worthy adversary....Im' like your Dead Things Nightmare.
Left the "alive" area of LI and went back to where some dead stuff is on the Island this trip.
My first Dead Thing of 2018.

blah blah blah. Looks suspiciously like road kill that was removed from the blacktop and placed on the beach! Don't you have a bunch of cats? Any of them die suddenly? I call for the CSI authentication team!

Saw that post about the turtles. Also read something about a dead whale off of long branch. Horseshoe crabs are pretty mundane, you guys should get out there and get cracking.

Some people like to cull bass. Maybe they got a larger one, under 43". So this one went back as crab food.
