Hey my Salty Friends, a report from Paradise....Been gone for awhile but hopefully I'll be here more often in de' future...
Life is good in de' Panhandle of Fl........If any of you Salties find your-crazy-selves over my way, send me a pm for a day on de' water or just a cold beer over looking de' gulf to share a tale or two. SO, here's my report!!!!
My buddy Chris called me last week from Jacksonville Fl and asked if I would take him and his fiance' fishing. Haven't seen Chris in two years since he deployed to the sand box so, I was pretty excited to re-unite for a fishing trip and meet his first wife to be Caroline.
As excited I was to take them I was a bit concerned about putting them on fish with my abscence from fishing the gulf for over 3 months. Many reasons for that but glad to be back out on the water.
After reading the weekend reports of strong currents and the full moon, I advised Chris the bite may not be so hot along with a strong current. Chris said he just wanted to get Caroline out in the gulf and didn't matter if we filled the box.
The current prevailed for fishing on anchor so I used the motor to keep our lines vertical.
We managed our limit of mingos and I was happy to be able to jig up a few Aj's for Caroline to finish off the fight. Caroline and Chris really enjoyed themselves and as the true indicator from my hypothesis..Quote from Caroline: "My arms hurt so much"!!!! lol Caroline was a real trooper all day!!!
I wish them both a life of love, enjoyment of one another and many more fishing trips together.
Caroline feeling the Aj pain, sorry no pics of the Aj's as my phone overheated sittin in the sun.http://www.gulfcoastfishingconnection.com/forums/images/smilies/misc/banghead.gif
