FISHING FOR AN ANSWER

Here is another unusual mailbox. How they ever got the Tarpon to stand like that and balance a mailbox on it's nose, I'll never know.

  1. There's probably a big, juicy worm dangling through the bottom of that mailbox.

  2. It's very different indeed but I liked it! Any cat mailbox around? LOL

  3. They feed it little fishies every single day. Thus, the tarpon stands up straight,
    In fact, the tarpon does whatever
    Its owners have to say.

  4. The tarpon took the dare from all of the manatees who get pressed into service holding mailboxes in the Tampa area.

    Great find!

  5. That's... silly!

    I did see a big carp jump all the way out of the water after something, although everyone tells me that they don't do that. Maybe he was looking for a mailbox.

  12. I kind of like. Especially since it suits the area - it would be just strange here.

  13. I think the fish went to modelling school. MB

  14. Is this anywhere near the mermail? Can one OD on letterboxes?

  15. I pity this poor fish who have to balance the mail box like that. I feel like chopping off the heavy load form its mouth.
