Report goes here! Sorry guys/gals I’m bored, heading out in 30 minutes. Wish me luck and I hope myself and all others today make a safe return. Remember, if you’re on the fish, hail Last Mango on 68 and I’ll come help:smiley:

what a disasterous day…got abt 13 miles out and foot goes out (current concensus) Cant move at all. My dumbass has no towing service etc as ive put it off since it isnt my boat. BAD CHOICE! We call in to Tow Boat US to help as I see capt steve on here and hear notthing but good things…still behind the tow boat now…inside jetties…GUy is super nice towing us…He asked if we had rigs to troll and if so to just troll in as we would be towing at 6mph…so we did…no bites…we fished in 60 ft of water where we were stuck…caught a ton of sharpnoses…got a some dumb pictures of guys passed out, them jolding sharks etc…total :
10+ sharpnose
a double ramora hook up…
had high expectations but it doesnt always work that way

Well here are some pictures…Through all the headache and waiting, we still managed to have a good time…The sharks were thick where we were…All Sharpnose…Caught some bigger ones that pushed 8-10 lbs…Some would strip line on the spinning reels like a king would. Most just swam side to side and came straight up. The double ramora (sp) hook-up on the bottom was new for me. This fish felt like we’d been rocked or hung on bottom…Gave slack, line got tension again, started to try and gain but it stayed at the bottom but knew fish was on b/c line was slowly going side to side. Was thinking maybe a ray or bigger shark…As soon as I got them a couple feet off the bottom they came straight up…Anyways, here are the pictures…Everyone but myself passed out at multiple times today. I haven’t slept since 6:30 Friday A.M. I’m about ready to hit the sack!
Double Ramora (sp)
Night Night Time
Time to roll over, back is uncomfortable…“Hey man, wake up, move your leg, I need a beer”
Tow Boat US chuggin’ on in…Man that was the LONGEST 4.5 to 5.0 hr ride of my LIFE!!! Thanks for the help guys…Buying a membership before ne
Reelman, have the owner of the boat check his boat insurance. He may have emergency services protection in his policy, usually they’ll cover up to 1000 w/ no deductible. I know Allstate has it, but it depends on the policy and type of coverage - thats too bad about the foot.
