Low Expectations Charters 5/14/14

Stickman and I were joined by Capntang and 23Sailfish to round out a great crew…newcomer Luke joined us and off we went to scare up some bottom creatures…made bait at the cans and headed out…while there was little wind chop the swell and wind were both coming somewhat SW’ish…made for a little wet trip out since we were heading SE…found one small grouper, some sea bass, pinkies and triggers…put more triggers in the box than anything…nice roll back home…thanks Stickman for the ride…trolling trip next!

since nobody else takes fricken pictures out there I had to grab a selfie…at 30MPH…in a choppy sea…

Nice Bonzo! I see some cheap beer, as well as some good, made the trip:wink: You must have run out of film in your digital camera, because you only took 1 fish picture:face_with_head_bandage:

I’m ashamed that the world now has photographic proof of me drinking that swill. :smiley:

Fun trip, though! Thanks for having me along.

Sliced up a little trigger for some ceviche that night, and man was it delicious.

capntang; your forgiven if you didn’t buy it! If Bonz bought it, it’s OK to drink free beer, but you have to make a sour face while you drink. Your going to have to work on that face stuff:wink:

in Capntang’s defense it was his responsibility to bring beer for the boat captain…oh yea, I assigned him that responsibility…my ways are wicked…bwahahaha…

My bibs were made fun of… until everyone else on the boat got wet…

This was a fun, no stress trip. Thanks for the invite and I really had a great time. I’ll take a cooler full of triggers any day. Looking forward to next time, the Regulator is a MACHINE.

Tried hard for a good grouper with the jig, but nothing doing.

Yeah we needed to take all that live bait to Grouper Deep first, and then go to 100 ft at the end instead of the other way around as was done. Oh wait I stopped shallow because my spine surgeon called on the VHF and told me to quit doing that to myself! Plus I had already spilled 24 oz of beer on myself and managed to get 4-5 pz actually in my mouth.
But every trip is a learning experience- this trip I learned someone actually cans urine, gives it a fancy name, and sells it to unsuspecting fisherman :wink:
Oh yeah, I also learned I CAN get 10000# of boat airborne off waves. :slight_smile:

stickman; he suspects, but I don’t think he cares as long as the price is right/cheap

Ha! Oddly enough, stickman is referring to the craft beer in the fancy cans that’s not pictured!

I’m gonna tell the Westbrooks he said that, too! :smiley:

Better late than never…

Been a good year for triggers. We have been hammering them.
