    I came home Sunday afternoon and the entire family is sitting around casually watching Marling Bates. Dad's trying not to fall asleep on the couch, the 9-year-olds loudly asking everybody what their favorite fluid is, and the teenagers are discussing the unfolding paint job. What a wonderful channel, keep up the good work.

    I've been following the channel now for 2 years or so and love the work. Id love to see you do a Murray Cod. Its an Australian native species, super aggressive fresh water fish which can grow over 1.2 metres (4+ft) and weigh up to 120kgs (270lbs) they have been filmed taking ducks off the water and have been known to eat wild piglets swimming across rivers.

    A fun fact you missed: Asian arrowana are illegal to own in the United States.
    Cichlid is pronounced sick-lid
    You did pronounce Cuckoo right the first time
    and the lure is amazing. Love your content

    • @theman4884

      I have an avid interest in fish and the fish keeping hobby, and I get a little over excited to share the random information that I know about it. Sorry if the comment seemed rude or overly corrective, I'm bad with with that kind of thing.

    I worked in the aquarium industry for a while, lots of people tried returning silver arowanas to my store because they didn't realize they got 4+ feet long as adults.
    Also, the ones we sold hardly ever ate pellets or floating food, and we had to substitute their diet with frozen mice like you'd feed a snake so they wouldn't search for food on the bottom of their tanks and develop droopy eyes

    An idea for the led eye lure is that if u take a plastic tube and wrap it in cooper wire and put a magnet through it it’s an infinite energy source and if u pair it with a batter u can charge up the batter with by shaking it . The magnet can also act like noise maker and weight adder . Just and idea love your videos cheers 🍻🍻🇨🇦

    Missing the Sunday morning regular posts, but still loving the videos and content. If someone traveled from sax Fifth Avenue uptown to the Twenty-Second street, they would be at a cross road Midway between the horse stables and the west creek, with a far better view than a busy downtown, but they now have to drive 10 times farther to check mail. The old caboose may have moved, but the maize is still around the corner. BTW, this took far longer to compose than discover!

    But I may full on ugly cry if Marling replies here and asks for me to produce them.
