Hi guys..

Make it out to 32 mile out of rollover yesterday morning..

Make several dives .. one big snapper.. Snaps have been hammered where we been going. water so clean they been going way outside of platform..


After 1 st dive, move to big main platform...It's black as far a the eyes could see to the east and SE.

We decide to hook up down wind of platform behind well conductor risers..

Wind got to 30-35 knots... It was raining sideways...seas got to 4-5'.. let out about 75' of rope.. Finchaser just bobbed like a cork..

Actually the rises were so close together it knocked the seas down to about 2-3'.

No lightening though..

We ended with one nice cobia.. 3 nice snaps..

Well THIS IS WHERE I CALL SOMEONE OUT...

We are leaving and my guys are putting gear away as I idled from the platform...

After about 100 yds, we see white things floating all over the place in the distance..

Go over to see what it is and it's very legal snapps 17-20".. The boat had just left that the fish were in line with..

They tie up to a platform north of us.. As we pass down current from them..

There some more floatin..

BTW..

I've seen this 24' bayboat fishing trout at Tiger Shoals.. It's a 24'-25' Yellow Hull Seachaser, Susuki 4 stroke, with a marroon t-top...... talon or powerpole???

Anyone on here know who this is???

AS for as I'm concerned; anyone who doesn't know how to release a snapper properly should not be fishing them..

They are LOWWW LIFES.. and F-- ing azzzholes. What F ----- ing douse bags.... I'm sure they had not landing permits, or were NOT using circle hooks...

People like these are the reason we have a 2 snap limit... So if u are a member on here; just know game wardens MAY BE are looking for U...

Ok I'm off my rant...
