Word on the docks is Fluffy’s gone and done it again, bagged himself a YFT the size of a small car. You’d think after all that time in lockup ⛓️‍💥 I would have slowed down, but nah, you can’t keep Fluffy down. He pops back up every time, fresher than a cold tinny on a hot day, grinning like he owns the ocean. Authorities can try, the sea can fight, but the legend of Fluffy keeps fishing. Cheers Fluffy 🎣
