Monday morning

[Hypoxic1]

Wife says Please bring home fresh fish for dinner" " have a good time"

So I did. No great story here. bait was tought to make . Dog took most of it. I was down to 2 of my last mackeral, small ones too, little 5 inch candy type....

Got hit a few seconds after dropping in and this one gave me a pretty good fight for 15 mins. About a pound heavier than my last yellowtail.

Man I sure wish I was working regular right now, but dam,

I love this job.

Home by noon

Congratulations Chris!

Sounds like a lot of hours on the water and some good advice from your freinds had you prepared.

Opporunity is that yellows are out there and so were you.

Lucky Bastard!

First and foremost, congratulations.

I wonder if Bob was with you?

Again, congratulations....it must be the frozen chum...

Hey Chris and Eric,

Can't make Thursday. Dentist appointment. Friday is open for me. If you guys go out on Thursday, please try to leave something for me to catch when I can get out there.

Careful with the chum, had a juvenile gw (didn't look like a mako) chase me yesterday morning. I got a pretty good ID since it was on my ass.

Nice fish. It's good when the wives like to eat fish. That way they let us go fishing.

[Geoffkoop]

Nice Yellow! You are on a roll out there. My wife loves fish but hates when I try to clean em in the kitchen.

[MVC]

I plan on going out Thursday. Maybe I will see you out there.

My wife and mother-in-law joined me to taste the YT I caught last week. I filleted the fish, prepared the dinner and even did the dishes. I made their portions small but not small enough as there was was still something left on the plate after dinner. Bummer.

I need a wife who loves the taste of fresh fish. Mine has stuck with me for way too many years to be a candidate for replacement but there must be some way to train the pallet.

Any suggestions?

Way to thin the herd D

Steve,
This shark would swim faster as I double timed my paddle strokes. My bait was behind him, so I figure it was chasing me down (Nothing was dragging or bleeding). I called Avery on the radio, and he paddled in my direction once he saw it behind me.
