Fourchon and Offshore
 

Woke up at 2 am to roll down to Fourchon with Pox, Fritz20, and Waterbowl We busted up 15 trout on top at the beach with a lot of blow ups and fish coming off at the boat , and I hooked myself in the thumb, then decided to run offshore( unlike some people ;)) Well there we found water rougher than 1-2's, 3 mangroves, 1 lane , and all the 14.5" red snapper you could want. We only slept for two hours last night so we decided at 130 to come in and make a short day of it. Good time on the water

Ouch!!!!!! How u get that out??

pushed it through and Pox cut the hook with some pliers

Lol all 3 of us are now sitting in my family room playin on salty Cajun!!.......dorks .. After riding in that 24 triton today watching it eat up that slop and big ship wakes .... I think I'm sold , going to look a one next week

After pinching his thumb meat with my pliers ... Notice the 2 vertical marks above the hook lol!!!

x2, and nice catch

Tritons are nice....However, if it will not out run a hiney it is worthless......

Owch!

Don't know if you rode in a Blackjack yet, but it is the best riding boat I have ever been in period. Have not been in a Triton though.

bet you liked pinchin meat



nice job guys

Yeah I been I a blackjack I live the ride but I like a 24' feel a lil more safe runnin offshore with that 2+ ft. I was gonna get a blackjack but I found a year old triton for a great price n can't find a BJ used that's worth a damn , rigged how I want the BJ is 60k+ ...... I'm goin look at the triton n then will decide

ouch!! that sucks. at least you sucked it up and finished the day!!

man, das a nasty looking hookset!!!!

Ouch. :help:That don't look good.

OWEEEE!
Way to stick it out.

Good thing you weren't usin' one of my Bombers. You would'a had all three barbs in ya. ;) Glad y'all enjoyed the trip.

That gotta hurt.Nice catch.Learned my lesson bout getting finger too close to the mouth of them mangroves.

now that sounds like it would hurt

Bob! Good job man! Heading outta freshwater city next Saturday, ready to roll?

We will see... I got stuff to do sat evening

I second the first part. and even the second part.

That is just ignorant... Don't comment on big boy stuff. Go back and play with your legos and ask for some more free stuff

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Wow!
Seems almost every post is something stupid or just nonconstructive.......I didn't really want to call him out on it, bit there ya go.......

You just that bored kid?

Can I have some free money?
And yes very.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that... Post count=cash=free stuff

Wow can we get a min age of 21? Besides fool anyway....

"-125"

Two minuses make a plus?

Gotta make that money back if I want some free stuff. Actually I need to get to bed. Waking up early and running 600 traps tomorrow.

Dink have you heard if the fresh water has screwed up the inland rigs (up to 10 miles out) out of FWC....
I assume if you are going after snapper you are going out a lot further which should not be a problem.

:rotfl: I guess there is a certain reason the Marines did not let him in....

Need to head west and far. Went Friday and had to get to at least 75' of water to even find a Red or Mangrove. Redfish are thick as crap out there. Did well but wasted alot of time at the closer rigs. Had to travel about 45 miles to get into them. Went last month for mangroves and couldnt get away from the Red Snapper starting in 45' of water.

Oh no they did let me in, but they didnt let me leave because of my INJURY. Torn ligaments and a barely passing run time in the 1.5 mile of 12:27 (passing is 12:30 and I was beating others running in lots of pain)with torn and strained ligaments in my left ankle is enough for them to say we can't let you leave hurt. I find it funny that most people who tease me about it didn't have enough fortitude of the maybe bakers to enlist in any branch of the military.

We may head to grand isle then.......offshore and inshore!!
