IT'LL DO & team All Rise 24-May-12 (pics&video!)

Got a call early in the week from It’ll Do that he wanted to roll first calm day. Said he had room for 4. Called the first 3 on the A-team list and we made plans to be there!

Got to Charleston early (for us anyway) and grabbed a room at the new Holiday Inn Express on Montague. Very nice BRAND new place right off I26. Figured saying in a Holiday Inn Express could only help us the next day.:smiley:

Me, Chunky, Brianh, and Heywood met It’ll Do and Johnny at the dock at 5am and jumped aboard the BEAUTIFUL 36 Yellowfin. The triple F300s roared to life and off to the fishing grounds we rode.

The ocean was not happy to see us and the ride out was sloppy to say the least. But before we know it we pulled back and put lines in on a nice temp break.

Trolled a bit and caught one or two but it was pretty slow. Chunky jumps up on the bow and says “boys we got to find something better than this!” Seconds later " and there it is! Barrell floating at 1 o clock." As we get closer someone yells “there is dolphin all ov…” ZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! 3 rods go down!! FISH ON! FISH ON! FISH ON!!

Over the rail they came.

Stayed on the barrel for a while till bite slowed then decided to push off and find some more fish. Heywood suggests we pick up. Lines in and off to we rode. It’ll Do had something up his sleeve luckly and as soon as he pulls back and lines go in the action starts.

Had some nice 3 and 4 fish fire drills. Crew did great and we made the most of them.

great report!

its not too long of a nap with those 3x300’s! congrats on the day

Congrats. Y’all are gonna be bummed on the day you “only” catch ten fish…:wink:

Sweet day for sure.

Any man that doesn’t know how to catch a fish, shouldn’t disgrace a fish, by catching it.

great job where did u fish???

What a great day on the water!! I was not worried about the crew because they did “Stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night!” Thank goodness they were very well rested because the ride out out a little shaky. The engines were in and out of the water. I guess I tried to push it a little hard and a couple times I had to throttle back down some.

Scoutin, thanks for the photos and the post. It would have taken me a 2 days to type and post what you did in 5 minutes.

I had the Go Pro in the water for the first time to experiment with it and the new attachment. It was a trial and error day. As for our fishing, Sometimes, We had to try to gaff a fish more than once:smiley:

Next time I’ll try to remember the “gouda”!

Thanks for the comments guys!

Black Bart, I heard a rumor about you. Need to confrim. You and I may have a opportunity to do some business in the near future. :wink:

Brainh, that was one of the quotes fo the day for sure. “Did you bring the gouda cheese?! No, forgot it…” The GOUDA WHAT?! Gouda cheese is not boat food! Beer pickles and chips!
:smiley:


Set the trap boys, we going to pass through them again!!

Great trip just in time before the next tropical wave

Scootin- 36 YF or 33 Freeman. Which one is the boat to have? And don’t ***** foot around. Let’s hear it.

Courtland, and what do I have to gain by answering this question on the internet???

I plead the 5th!

My guess is you’ll lose the invites from the rougher riding boat and likely gain more from better one. Sounds like a no brainer to me.

I do already know the answer though. After second thought, keep it to yourself, my build time will be long enough, as is, when I get my chit together.

The fishing has been great on both boats for me. Very lucky I was invited to tag along with two of the nicest guys in Charleston!!

I am very interested in the answer to that question as well. I have heard many compliments on both boats. Please PM me if you are willing to offer up some firsthand knowledge.

I personally don’t think there’s a clear winner. They both have their positives and both have their negatives.

Why does one have to be better than the other? We are talking about opinions, are we not?

They are both awesome boats and I am proud to have been invited on both!
