1320 Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Dam, and I swim out there once a week for training. Never even seen a fish a boulder beach. We swim the bouy line for ironman training. Quote
wingnut Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Are you sure they weren't 2 lb green monster slurpee turds?????? Quote
duniemonkie Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Here some friendly advice from your local DDR fish expert... 1: be sure they are piranha, most people will id anything with teeth as a piranha 2: They will niether eat you or bother you while you're in the lake unless you're bleeding profusely or near them while thrashing about wildly. Remember, you're bigger than they are. 3: These fish do get dropped in US lakes all the time but most cannot survive the temperatures. When it gets cold they will croak. 4: They are considered to be delicious so if you do catch one please invite me over for dinner Quote
1BADYFZ Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 I caught a shark there once, i have no pics though.. Quote

CaptNkllm Posted July 28, 2008 Author Posted July 28, 2008 I saw some floating corn and peanuts is that a turd fish? :peek: was it green corn?...could have been that rare monster turdfish that has been poking out a little bit lately...dit it smell like pickles? I think they are called stink picklefish if I remember correctly...I hope you didnt touch it it might make you a poopd*ck Capt Quote
duniemonkie Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 I was out there yesterday. I didn't see any fishies, but I look like a lobster now. Oops. :peek: oops Eh, we've all done it. My bet they were Pacu's not pirahna!!!!!! 2 lbs is a very huge pirahana 2lbs an avg size pacu!!! and they look almost identical. But I did have a fight with this huge octopus out there once. no pictures damn. Yay Ken!! I was just coming on here to say that. However, the average pacu in the Amazon is ~35lbs but some have been recorded up to 80lbs. People usually just don't have them in a proper environment as pets. If those in Lake Mead ARE pacu, they will probably enjoy a nice growth spurt until they freeze to death this fall. Pacu are also supposed to be extra yummy so my demand for a dinner invitation still stands to whomever catches one Quote
