Sunny,
We were one of the boats, 28 Scout with a blue hull, that passed by you on the temp break. We saw your excitement with yall holding up the big hoo. We were a little jealous of the hoo but were very happy with the dolphin we caught.
We thought about you on the way in. How was the return trip the last 20 miles to the rocks?
Again, congrats on the big wahoo.

I’ve got twin 200 ox66’s and dude, they are thirrrrsty! I can burn forty gallons before I have bait. Congrats on the catch!
My numbers are so secret even the fish don’t know where they are…

Also, if you let the small ones sit overnight in the cooler and really chill down, you will get a higher yield.
The last few mile in were a bit sporty, we were still able to make around 20 MPH without getting too beat-up or too wet.
20mph makes for a long ride back, but I’m usually not in a big hurry to back on the hill anyway…
CoolBreeze, how do you like the Parker? Never rode on one.
let the peanuts go.
I know this is not a fish report but I just had to put a dog in this chase. I have a 257CC Seafox w/twin 150 optimax engines Left SI boat landing one mornimg and headed out. From jettey entrance we took a heading between the Gardens and The Comanche to 300’. Started trolling South,zig-zag all the way to E-Banks and botton fished that afternoon. Made the run back to jetteys from there According to my GPS it was about 187nm.
68 gal to top off
26 dlophin
5 queen trigers
20 b-liners
1 blue spotted corenet fish
Super Fly, Christian and The Nature Boy " Carl"
Where did you get the coronet fish and queen triggers? And what bait?

It does…
I had twin 175’s on a Grady. When I bought the boat I was looking at the 1/2" fuel lines going to each motor thinking that is over kill…I know now, they NEEDED 1/2" fuel lines. They were solded and 140 4 strokes put on.
