Default Friday and Saturdays reports

[SIZE=3]We were able to fish Friday and Saturday this past weekend. I would like to say that it was nice and calm but that would be a lie! Last week Capt. Gray talked me into fishing with him for two days. After two rough days on the water, lets just say he owes me big time!!

Friday Gray had customers that drove down from Oklahoma and even though we told them it would be rough offshore, they wanted to fish! We let them know it was a little rough to chase tuna so we made the decision to go bottom fishing!

Nice and easy out to the first spot, a few cut offs on cudas, I think we may have picked up one nice AJ on a pogie. Decided to get the sabiki out and after a few casts we had the baitwell full of hammer hardtail! 15/0 hook, 400 pound leader, 24 oz lead and five huge hardtail = five real nice amberjack plus the one on the pogie, thats a 6 man limit! Awesome! Pack up and head west. Make it to the next spot and drop down deep and in about 2 hours only 1 grouper to show! Next spot was the one! We managed to pick up 5 real nice almaco jacks, 2 brotula and 2 more nice snowy grouper! Not bad, take it to the barn!

Saturday we had hopes that the seas would lay a little but no luck! First thing saturday morning, talk to the crew, we decide to make another bottom run!

Head back to the same spot as the day before, figure we pick up another baitwell of big hardtail! Wrong, they moved out. Had to work hard to find a few hardtail and got a few on cut bait! We had to leave the area with one AJ short of a limit, couldnt seem to get that last one. Guess the one that I dropped back in the water would have come in handy about now! Gray would probably still be giving me a hard time if I wouldnt have found one more jack and a nice 35 pound snowy at the next rig! HA HA! I still cant believe I dropped a 50+ pound jack back in the water!!

We did find that nice Snowy and AJ and that spot but that was it for the day! We hit a couple of shrimp boats on the way back in, only sharks to show! I did hear that a couple of boats had seen a few big yellowfin on a couple boats saturday though. The boats are just making it back out but it looks like it will get bumpy again so who knows!

We have an open boat for saturday 12th and also the 18th, 19th and 20th are open to fish!

Give us a call or email for info!

Thanks for the report Capt Josh! You stay on dem fishes so we won't have to do all that searching on the 26th. I hope you're praying to the Weather Gods as I am for good seas on our next outing. I'll be seeing you in a few weeks with some different fishing partners this time.

Tight lines!

I have a problem losing my wallet....so cash disappears w/o a trace...

I like my checkbook/card for travel!

Might have to get me a travelers check made out pre trip for lodging/fishing.

Small companies need to get androids or iphones with a card scanner attachment.

Dude that fog was stupid! Untill late spring there will be fog in venice,no doubt about it. Working radar makes it more enjoyable though.
