04-24-09 Bottom fishing

I would wait and let Sellsfish do the report, but that joker will be fishing for the next three days in a row and you’ll never get to see it. Ocean was a little bumpy for us coming and but laid down in the middle for some stellar bottombumping action.

It was slow in the AM, but that afternoon bite was well worth the wait. Had lots of action with the beeliners all day long and a good grouper bite for about an hour solid. Missed two or three other good bites. Couldn’t find the triggerfish but a couple managed to stray and run into our hooks. Wish we had gotten more of them (one of my favorite dishes), but all in all a good day on the ocean. Wet ride back in late.

Water temp was 71 40 miles out.

Enjoy the pictures.

Slick in the AM

I’m going to go ahead and call dibs on this as my avatar. For those of you that care, he handled it like a pro…until we had to clean it! :smiley:

This photo was taken for no one other than EF.

Next trip will be of the trolling kind…

I have a question, do yall really pose for pictures and say this one is for “insert screen name?”

If the comedy channel on your XM goes out switch your VHF to 68.

WELL ATLEAST THE POINT CAME ALL THE WAY THROUGH…

I thought circles only hooked the corner of the mouth. Sells must have been smiling through the pain cause that looks like it smarted some.

Congrats on some nice fush and for being able to get out there. Us 5 day a week 10hr/day office peeps is jealous.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

I didn’t even get to use it; Paul wouldn’t get out of “his corner” of the boat. Guess I’ll have to add 20’ of cable to it and I’ll be able to fish out of the bow from now on… [:0]

Nice report Ricky! OUCH Sellsfish. You r a lot tougher than me. I would have been in the corner bawling my head off.

Triggers are one of my favorites also. Havent had any in about 4 years though.I need a few offshore trips to fill my freezer.Freezer only has two small quart bags, whiting, black & red drum, of fish and 4 frozen water bottles .

sells… if you was any kind of man you woulda grabbed that thing with your teeth and snatched it out backwards… WITH THE BARB STILL ON…

j/k… looks like that hurt, especially the rest of the day while you were pullin them fish in…
