Nice work.Did you get sharked

Nice work.

Did you get sharked near the boat? I've caught countless snapper from the sound and never been sharked, but heard plenty of stories of it happening

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
