That's a healthy looking fish. Any size limits on them Willie?

Nice looking fish Willie! Great legs too;)

You're right Scott. A lot of wisdom and knowledge in a young package. We fished from depths of a foot to about eighteen feet today. You could've sight cast your fly to a big school of redfish in a foot or so of water 20 feet off the beach and had a blast. I don't know if that fancy rod would...

Good eyes V! That gal knows her fish. Gotta love those tripletail, they're not too smart, but man are they good to eat. I like it Jay. He's given me a lot of fish and bread too.

I got to take my Pastor out for a little while this morning. We had a pretty hard east wind coming off the storm in the Gulf and had to hunt for calm water. Everything is muddied up and fishing was tough but we managed to scrap up a few in spite of the conditions.

Jay, it's true not just for bottom fish like grouper and snapper, but pelagics like tuna, mackerel, wahoo and the like also orient to structure like wrecks and coral. Baitfish gather on these places and it's all about food for the pelagics.

Most definitely Jay. We found some great looking spots on sonar on the way home, marked them as waypoints and will be able to get right back on them. Plotting a course on the gps saves time and gas because you're running a straight line to and from. Technology has it's good and bad points. Back...

Thanks Scott. Adventure is what makes memories isn't it? This time of year squalls are pretty much a daily occurrence in the Gulf. Surprisingly we saw no waterspouts this week, which usually accompany them. They can be intimidating, but are pretty slow moving in comparison to land based...

Just not in a storm. It's weird about seasickness Levi. My Daddy would get sick on a freshwater lake and my son is not far behind that. A older friend was so sick and had lost so much fluid (and everything else) last year that I was really concerned that he might suffer long term effects or...

Boy, there's a unimaginable amount of energy in just one storm. Not just electricity, which there is plenty of, but wind, rain, up and down drafts, waves and everything associated with it. If you could harness THAT.......... We tried to skirt that one but it was just too wide and we finally just...

Now that's an idea! It got a little squally out there this time.

Wild looking fish Butch. We ran out and made an overnight trip to the Florida Middle Grounds and caught snapper, grouper and a lot of other species. I caught a bucket list yellow tail snapper which are common in the keys but very rare this far north.

You're right Jay, fast as lightning, real drag screamers. Good on the smoker too.

For sure. A couple of friends have entered us in a King Mackerel tournament here this weekend. I've never fished a tournament before, always got out of town on those weekends, so this will be a first for me. Maybe I can post a pic with a big Mack and a big check in the next couple of days;)...

Loving the tuna too Scott. While cleaning the last ones we caught I had to do a little taste test......... Lord willing, we're going back that same area in a week. It's a hundred mile run one way but hopefully it will be worth it.

Not those Willie, but we still catch 'em and eat 'em, every way you can think of.

A lot of folks have been mesmerized into following the catch and release mantra for bass and I fell into that trance for a while. Then I woke up hungry and it was on! Seriously, I never kill a big bass but those four pounds or less are definite candidates for dinner plates. Bass from clean water...

:lol:

Deadly rig alright. Been doing the redfish, tripletail, speckled trout thing out of the kayak for a few years and it's a blast. Where do you chase redfish? Fine bass Bob, 6-7 pounder?

Beautiful bass! The best of both worlds, getting a workout on the PB and catching lunker largemouths. You fishing a whacky worm?
