Pulled out of Shem Creek just after 7:00am with my regular partner his father and another elder. Headed to the ol top secret hole past the Commanche. We have not counted yet, but we should have 10-12 scamp(2 big), some red hinds,kings,50#aj,yellow tail snapper(sm), a yellow jack,b liners,big white porgs, pink snapper(200 released) and others. Should have had many more grouper but the old folks were getting pulled into the rocks. Time to restock the lead bucket. First trip with new motor. 115nm and 64 gal. fuel. the old Merc275 would have burned 105gal+oil= $200 saved per trip. Ran out at 25-30mph in at 40mph. Thanks to the crew. I had a blast.
Great day! glad you guys got on some good fishing. And your motor held up good numbers too!
What is the new motor by the way?
Great job Sounds like you guy’s slayed them congrats on the day
