Heck BobO I thought you lost the lower on the way in not the way out. You guys are really dedicated. Nice bunch of fish–good lookin Hogs. We were kind of waiting for your return to get a report because we were going out on Sunday to the same area. You probably heard already but we caught a lot of Bliners, some nice size bsb (largest i’ve ever caught personnaly) a trigger or two a small red snapper (lot of fish but no great size to any of them).
Divers got 2 small grouper, and a bunch of Shovel Nose Lobsters, I think about 26. Zach shot his first Hog but wasn’t as big as yours.
By the way–finally got the problem figured out with the starboard engine—the inner liner on the fuel line going from the raycore to the engine was falling to pieces and was restricting fuel flow at high demands only. We thought we by-passed this weeks ago but thats another story. Anyways, we are now the proud owners of a $1,000 fuel line.
