Originally posted by 23SailfishIt was a lot of fun talking with you guys out there skinnee. Glad you guys stayed on them and got a few more to eat. It was hectic out there playing dodge the sporty, which is why we took off after a few hours without a bite. I’m sure Sells was biting at the bit to drop some bait deep, but it paid off for you guys. Congrats on a great day. The double sail is great news for May 1st. It’s going to be a good season.
Had a great time as per usual, guys. Glad to be part of your first sailing fish, Dave.
Skinnee, good luck this weekend…
PS You guys should see sellsfish cut a fish…A master at work.

Go Tigers!!!
Top secret GPS location, Top secret Skinnee-Rigger, and Top secret Bojangles chum slick trick all show in one photo… We may need to start screening some of these photos… If there is a line at Bojangles tonight, I will be highly upset…
I’m still pouting about not being able to drop on any of that beautiful bottom!! Skinnee kept rubbing it in every time we would go over a nice spike of fish. Felt strange not dropping for grouper, and knowing they were right under us.
I still had a blast, and it is a privilege to fish with an entire crew that knows what they are doing! My hat’s off to that little “Speedy Gonzales” Andrew, you are one hell of a mate, and you will make a fine Captain one day. I look forward to fishing with you again in the future. Joe, and Jason, pleasure as usual. Congrats to Dave (R&D) on his first sail!!! You are a trooper for taking the customary dip. Tuna, the other red meat!
