Hi Guys,

To answer the fishing question " did I catch anything " in a word "yes"

But...as often goes the fishing adventures " the best plans" some times just don't work out.

The idea was to stock up on Mahi Mahi...the last trip of the season for that type of fish. Conditions were perfect except for water temp. The fish were just not there.

After running fifty miles off shore with one fish for out trouble in typical Carlos and Billy fashion we decided to go to the "Flemish Cap" or another fifty miles off shore as it were. Mind you this is in a 28 foot open center console boat.

Now we are fishing on the bottom in 1250 foot of water. We got Misty Grouper in 30 to 40 pound range and Yellow eye snapper around five pounds and Queen Snapper in the ten pound range.

Well, getting late, getting a bit low on fuel we bash into a three to four foot chop at 25 knots for four hours non stop to make the 100 mile run back to the house.

Beat me in to submission...lol...the things grown men who know better do for fun...lol

Don't try this at home, as they say, cause it is a good way to get killed. But never mind that, been there, done that, got the T shirt and am sure it won't be the last time. I am not real old, 68, and the pain is the same as when I was younger but the recovery time is getting longer and longer...lol

Fresh fish is in the cooler so allyall, thats is plural for yall, come on over and we can cook some up.

Now I get to check out my new Audiophile drive.

Cheers,


Billy
