trusted the weatherman and left late today… departed around 9am. saw ben of jabez fame coming into our fine deep water marina and heard the unfortunate news that the small craft cancelled Edisto… oh well… headed out and had some pretty good fishing. kept about 25 grown mauis. might have kept more, stopped counting after a while… had 4 jump out of the box. that was a career high. luckily one was still on the hook and we were able to wrastle that one home. you should have seen striker tips assualt him on the second try… eddy mac would be proud. we caught a few tunas as well. first we laid the wood to the skinneej bronze fins. they were all we could handle. thanks to the new growler we were able to winch them in… donkey soup got our mind right. then we captured about 8 or 10 adult blackfish and one youngun as well. lost count. most were 25 to 30lbs and maybe more.
caught the wowies in the 200s and the tunas in the 100s and north. awesome day on the rip with darlene, thizzle, tips, and bruiser. hopefully back at it on monday with DAD.
on a side note, the carla dee ventured out as well and had a great day on the mauis. they were able to outfish us with a wahoo. makes me proud. any of you who couldn’t make it out can grab a filet in the morning. just give me a shout and you can meet me at our deep water marina in the AM.
Sorry i could not make it, my babysitter fell through. Hopefully we can get together next time. Thanks for the invite! Great day!! You guys can flat catch fish!
So how was the weather after all?

Man i wish i could a made it wid yall! thanks again for the invite. the sat. day trip cancelled sat morn and then i had to stick around to see about the overnite which ended up not even goin. congrats on yal s day! one of these days maybe I’ll get to troll again!?
Darlene says thanks and he had a blast. Sorry for the blasphemy with him giving away the tricks of the trade back at the docks. He apologizes and assures it wont happen again. On another note, conservation is going well; I’m very glad we T&R’ed those 3 dolphin back into the wild with punctured air bladders. I’ll bring the glowsticks next time so we can see what we’re doing…
Can’t wait to get at em again. I’ll be up for the hizzle next time.
they did feast on the twitches, but it seemed like they really wanted fakies off the rainbow. it was all we could handle to keep them in the water. unfortunately we donated FIVE twitches to the blackfish. i was beginning to think that we had stomped some bad juju, but then i realized it was pilot error… if you need some let me know b/c i am going to order a bundle from our boy BW.
gassy - one day we will get you out of that steel pilot house and onto some fiberglass. we needed you b/c the bottom in the 100s in 200’ was alive with critters. i am scared of them w/o professional help, nessy might have been down there.
midgie - we may have to put the creole cork dart in the next bluefish that we run over. i forgot to add that we had a very hungry sailing fish that was all over the naked jimmies. i had them in the water before bruiser had the hooks out. she piled all over the jimmies 4x and then i must have scared her away. next time we will be more wily and wait to put the jimmies in the water until we can hang one w/ a hook.
s4g - sorry it didn’t work out. let me know whenever you would like to ride.
tips - we have to watch what we say around darlene. i think something flipped when he saw those fish airing out. he looked like that crazy girl alison rummaging through the drawers.
looks like tomorrow is a no-go. the old RB and a few others are going. DAD was bummed. he told me that he was going to catch a bus if mom didn’t drive him down. i got a good laugh about that. it would be a little sporty for our young bones, much less his more experienced ones. he would fly of the handle if i told him as much, so i just said it was a gale and left it at that.
I feel a little cooler just reading all your slang- must be from spruil ave. “Yo went down to the eats place on the little river had boyardee put some jumpin skillets in my digestion track, lost a couple jeffersons to the penquin but I got dizzy so it’s chill”.
Translation-
I went down to shem creek and ate some fresh fish, it cost me some money, but I had a few drinks so it was worth it.
Nice work Daniel. It’s only a matter of time before people notice the squid painted on the bottom of your hull. I’ll keep the secret safe for now though!

Cap Mel was doing that during the Clinton Administration…
hey kt, i think i remember that you are a navy seal or something. if so i don’t want you on my bad side. if you live near mt p you can meet me at the boat in 40 minutes and have a filet. you would be the 37th person to feast off of our bounty in the past two days.
if i’m mistaken and you aren’t a seal, then move along and go about your business…
