Matt Farrell: Seriously, you probably shouldn’t antagonize them, since they have all the guns.
Lucy McClain: Listen, will you just take a minute and dig deep for a bigger set of balls, 'cause you’re gonna need 'em before we’re through.
From the film “Live Free or Die Hard”, written by Mark Bomback, 2007
That’s a new addition to “the Quotes”, the chapter which introduces this book, “Positive Changes That Are Occurring”.
Here’s more fish data. I know it’s boring, but it’s bearing great fruit.
And it’s uplifting to see the natural world booming and burgeoning in this way, don’t you agree?
In February 2018, odumagazine.com said IGFA Hot Catches - February 2018”.
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the headline omits the word “fish”, and the word record”, to make the subject virtually unsearchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”. And where the hottest record catches in the world are walked back to catches that are merely “hot”.
The article goes on to say “Kitagawa’s Blackfin Seabass - Japanese angler Mari Kitagawa caught, tagged and released this 2.22 kg. (4 lb, 5 oz) blackefin seabass (Lateolabrix latus) on December 30 while fly fishing in Urado Bay, Japan…if approved, the catch will earn Kitagawa the new women’s 3 kg (6 lb) tippet class world record, which currently stands at 1.3 kg (2 lb, 13 oz).”
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the author omits the year, 2018, to make the subject far less searchable. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The uncredited author, tagged as “ODU Admin”, provided the weights of the old and new record holder, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, along with the date of the previous record. Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
Anytime an author is not credited, it’s understood that the article has been written by Intelligence asset.
So, I had to do the math to learn that the women’s IGFA tippet class world record blackfin seabass, from 2018, weighed 4 pounds, 5 ounces, and was 53% larger than the previous 2-lb, 3-oz record holder from some obfuscated prior date.
The article goes on to say “Sherbovich’s Snubnose Pompano - Russian angler Ilya Sherbovich potentially set the new all-tackle world record for snubnose pompano (Trachinotis blocheli) with this gorgeous 5.98 kg (13 lb, 3 oz) specimen that he caught while fly fishing the flats of the Seychelles on February 9. The current all-tackle world record is 5.05 kg (11 lb, 3 oz).
Where the author misleadingly described what is by far the largest snubnose pompano in history as “gorgeous”.
Under the false guise of familiarity, the uncredited author omits the year, 2018, to make the subject far less searchable. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
And, while they provided the weights of the old and new record holder, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, along with the date of the previous record. Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So, I had to do the math to learn that the all-tackle world record snubnose pompano, from 2018, weighed 5.98 kg (13 lb, 3 oz), and was 18.4% larger than the previous 5.05 kg (11 lb, 3 oz) record holder from some obfuscated prior date.
The article goes on to say “Clarke’s great barracuda - Junior angler Rex Clarke, age 12, recently caught this 29.85 kg (65 lb 12 oz) great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda)…if approved, the catch will earn Clarke the new Male Junior world record and the men’s 6 kg (12 lb) line class world record, which stand at 23.4 kg (51 lb 9 oz) and 29.03 kg (63 lb 15 oz) respectively.”
While they provided the weights of the old and new record holders, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, along with the date of the previous records. Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So, I had to do the math to learn that the all-tackle world record great barracuda, from 2018, weighed 29.85 kg (65 lb 12 oz), and was 27.5% larger than the previous 23.4 kg (51 lb 9 oz) Male Junior word record and 2.8% larger than the 29.03 kg (63 lb 15 oz) men’s 6 kg (12 lb) line world record holder from some obfuscated prior dates.
The article goes on to say “Reib’s Brown Marbled Grouper - German angler caught this impressive 28.45 kg (62 pound, 11 ounce) brown-marbled grouper (Epicephelus fuscoguttatas) on February 10…if approved, the catch will become the new all-tackle record, which currently stands at 17 kg (37 pounds, 7 ounces).”
Where what is by far the largest brown-marbled grouper in the history of fishing is hedged back to merely “impressive”.
While they provided the weights of the old and new record holders, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, along with the date of the previous record. Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So, I had to do the math to learn that the all-tackle world record brown-marbled grouper, from 2018, weighed 28.45 kg (62 pound, 11 ounce) , and was 67% larger than the previous 17 kg (37 pounds, 7 oz) all tackle world record holder from some obfuscated prior date.
The article goes on to say “McCord’s Rainbow Trout - American angler Meredith McCord potentially set the new women’s 4kg (8 lb) tippet class world record for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with this beautiful 4.93 kg (10 lb 14 oz) fish…if approved, the catch will replace the existing world record of 2.55 kg (5 lb, 9 oz).”
Where what is by far the largest 8 lb tippet class rainbow trout in history is misleadingly described as “beautiful”.
While they provided the weights of the old and new record holders, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, along with the date of the previous record. Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So, I had to do the math to learn that the women’s 8 lb tippet class world record rainbow trout, from 2018, weighed 4.93 kg (10 lb 14 oz), and was 101% larger, or literally twice as large as the previous 2.55 kg (5 lb, 9 oz) record holder from some obfuscated prior date.
Did you notice how the unnamed Intelligence asset who wrote the article “buried” the most gigantic percentage at the very bottom of the article? Well, they sort of did, in that they omitted the percentage, and I had to do the math to realize it.
In 2021, the IGFA published “Newly Approved IGFA World Records”. Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the headline omits any mention of the date, or the word “fish”, to make the subject virtually unsearchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those many variants is “incredible”. That’s why the article goes on to say “Block’s Giant Tigerfish - Avid fly angler and adventurer Jeremy Block of Kenya recently caught and released this incredible 15.39-kilogram (33-pound, 14-ounce) giant tigerfish to set the IGFA Men’s 10-kg (20-lb) Tippet Class World Record for the species. Jeremy was on a trip to the Vovado River in the Central African Republic when he landed this toothy specimen on a streamer.”
There’s no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.

There’s no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The article goes on to say “Sherbovich’s Snubnose Pompano - Russian angler Ilya Sherbovich returned from a trip to the Seychelles in February with a record snubnose pompano catch. He landed the 2.61-kilorgam (5-pound, 12-ounce) fish to set the IGFA Men’s 3-kg (6-lb) Tippet Record for the species. He was fishing with the Alphonse Fishing Company on Poivre Island when the record pompano ate his crab fly. He was able to land the fish after a 35-minute battle. Congratulations Ilya on another impressive record.”
There’s no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Two of those many variants are “amazed” and “unique”.The article goes on to say “Frankens’ Smallmouth/Largemouth Bass Hybrid - Wyatt Frankens recently landed this 3.43-kilogram (7-pound, 9-ounce) smallmouth/largemouth hybrid (Micropterus dolomieu x salmoides) to set the new IGFA All-Tackle World Record for the species. Wyatt is no stranger to large bass and was fishing on the Oh Ivie Reservoir, Texas when he hooked this amazing hybrid on a megabass swimbait. He submitted a sample of scales to the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, and they were able to confirm that the fish was indeed a hybrid landing him the record. Congratulations on a unique catch!”
Where the uncredited author called the walked the largest smallmouth/largemouth bass hybrid in history back to merely “unique”.
There’s no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.

One of those many variants is “amazed”. That’s why the article goes on to say “Cuoto’s African Red Snapper - Lucas Couto, age 13, recently submitted this beautiful 32.50-kilogram (71-pound, 10-ounce) African red snapper to set the IGFA Men’s Junior World Record for the species. Lucas was fishing out of Kuanza, Angola when this massive snapper ate the Rapala he was trolling. After a short fight he was able to boat the fish and take this amazing shot on the shoreline. An impressive fish at a young age!”
Where the largest red snapper ever caught by a junior, in all history, is walked back to merely “massive” and “impressive”.
There’s no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.

In January 2022, 1045theteam.com widened its eyes to simulate honesty and asked “What Record Fish Was Caught in Capital Region Waters in 2021***?***”
It gives the subconscious of the Coincidence theorist the green light to say that no record fish might have been caught in Capital region waters in 2021, at all, and be one of the sixty to seventy percent of readers who only read the headlines.
The author, Charlie Voelker, goes on to say “There are 45 different fish species classified for state records with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Some of them, like the 69 pound 15 ounce Muskie that Arthur Lawton caught on the St. Lawrence River on September 22, 1957 or the 46 pound 2 ounce Northern Pike that Peter Dubuc caught in the Great Sacandaga Lake on September 15, 1940 may never be broken.”
That smoke-blowing opening paragraph is an example of what Intelligence operatives call “chaff”. It’s put forward to make the great list of 2021 fish records appear smaller, and to give the impression that ancient records are not being broken left and right.
The article goes on to say “My favorite is Kevin Kelly’s 7 pound 7 ounce Black Bullhead that he caught on ‘WonderBread’ in Mill Pond on Long Island back in 1993. However each year, it seems like one or two of the records fall. That’s what happened in 2021.”
He’s really laying on thick, to give the impression that fish records are not falling at ever-faster rates, as I am laboriously documenting here.
The article goes on to say “The first record of 2021 went down in June, when on the 13th Chase Soptelean reeled in an 13 pound 8 ounce Bowfin out of the Yanty Creek near Rochester and Lake Ontario. Seriously, I had never heard of a Bowfin but this is what they look like and I am sure Chase, like all of us would be, was happy to reel in any 13 pound fish! Congratulations Chase!”
In a masterful little bit of what Intelligence operatives call “tradecraft”, agent Charlie Voelker takes the largest bowfin in the history of New York state and pretends he doesn’t know what it is, despite loving him some fish like it’s his job, and then says that the guy who caught it is too stupid to care what kind of fish they caught. And then, as a bonus, omits any mention of what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. The latter being an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
Unfortunately for Charlie, I live for this shit, and am in the mood to continue to expose his duplicity through what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
I had to look up a separate article, from August 2021, from buffalonews.com, to learn “The first state record fish for 2021 has come to the scales, this time in Monroe County. Chase Soptelean of Brockport was fishing for northern pike in Yanty Creek with cut bait when something hit his offering. After reeling it in, he realized it was the largest bowfin he has ever seen. After having the fish weighed on a certified scale June 13, he decided to check the record books. He found that his 13-pound, 8-ounce bowfin beat the previous record caught in 2006 from Lake Champlain by 10 ounces.”
Where author Bill Hilts, Jr. provided the weights of the old and new record holders, they omitted the far-more impactful percentage increase between them, replacing it with the general “by 10 ounces”. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So I had to do the math - twice - to learn that the New York state record bowfin, from 2021, weighed 13 pounds, 8 ounces, and was 4.9% larger than the previous 12-pound, 11 ounce record holder from 2006.
Charlie Voelker’s “What Record Fish” article continues: “The second New York State fish record went down in the southern tip of the Capital Region on August 21st of this year, when Roy Isaac landed a sweet 4 pound 7 ounce White Crappie from Sleepy Hallow Lake in Athens, in Green County. That is a big fish and congratulations to Roy. Out of 45 New York State Record Fish, only 3 have been caught in the Capital Region of New York. So, thanks Roy for keeping us in the books!”
Where the largest white crappie in the history of New York state was walked back to merely “a big fish”, and also “sweet”, the latter which implies “small and cute”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Two of those many variants are “bizarre” and “unusual”. That’s why a USA Today article from September 2021 says “Angler’s unusual catches include a bizarre, world-record fish”.
Where the uncredited author replaced the name of the fish with the word “fish”, to make the subject almost unsearchable. That’s a propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
Anytime an author is uncredited that author is by definition an Intelligence asset.

(Bob Simpson with the world record spanish hogfish, from 2021 - it was 79% larger, or closing in on twice as large as the previous record holder. USA Today described it as a “pretty large margin”.)
The article goes on to say “On a day spent bottom fishing with Capt. Hiroki Toma and a friend off the North Carolina coast, Dr. Bob Timson came out on top when it came to unusual catches, and one of them turned out to be a world record—by a pretty large margin. Timson looked up the fish and discovered it was a Spanish hogfish, and his was bigger than those he saw online. This prompted him to check the world record for the species and found it was only 1 pound, 8 ounces. When they finally put the fish on the certified scale, it weighed 2 pounds, 11 ounces, shattering the world record by more than a pound.”
Where the unnamed, Intelligence-asset author withheld the margin between the records, and then widened their eyes to simulate honesty and claimed that the margin between the records was not very large, or large, but rather only “pretty large”. But, wait, what? How can the margin between the records only be pretty large, when the new record “shattered” the old?
The author used the successive hedging generalities “shattering the world record” and “by more than a pound” to obfuscate the far more impactful percentage increase between the records that I was forced to do the math to learn.
The world record Spanish hogfish, from 2021, weighed 2 pounds, 11 ounces, and was 79% larger, or closing in on twice as large as the previous 1-pound, 8-ounce record holder from some obfuscated prior date?
We’ve now learned that the author called a 79% margin between the old record and the new only “pretty large”.
They also made no mention of the what the previous record was, or who set it, or when. That’s another example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
I had to look up a separate article to learn “As of October 15, 2020, the International Game Fish Association world record stood at 0.69 kg (1 lb 8 oz) with the fish caught off the Stetson Bank in the Gulf of Mexico in February 2005.”
We now know that the world record spanish hogfish increased in size by 79% from 2005 to 2021, from 1 pound, 8 ounces to 2 pounds, 11 ounces.
