Re: Carrabelle mahi mahi--have they come in yet?

I've caught peanut dolphin 4-5 miles off of Mexico beach in June/July/August in years past, found a close in area with some floating weeds one year and had a ball watching my kids and their friends pitching a small jig to the edge and watching the dolphin crash it time after time and just swarm all ...

Re: 2019 Capts for Clean Water Skiff Challenge starts today

Ride had to have been rough, Sea Pro also totally lost their electric power while running down the ICW, had to resort to the second captain laying on the front deck with a flashlight and they stopped in St Marks to make repairs including losing their radar and I think the whole poling platform tryin...

Re: 2019 Capts for Clean Water Skiff Challenge starts today

Well our KWB team captain just posted an update on the KWB forum, they got slammed by the storm front while still in the bay at PC so they had to stop and make repairs thus the long delay, the made a decision early on to really outfit the boat with state of the art electronics so it had dual Garmin ...

Re: 2019 Capts for Clean Water Skiff Challenge starts today

I was surprised at the ICW run as well, the YF and HB boats ran the ICW at around 40mph last night :o Not sure exactly what happened to the KWB team but they got way behind around PC and meandered around for a while before running out to the Gulf only to back track back to the bay before running the...

Re: 2019 Capts for Clean Water Skiff Challenge starts today

Nasty storms near start time and they all seem to be running the ICW for now. Not sure they can do that in the Michael impact area due to all of the debris???

Re: Dicks Sporting Goods

I believe a bazooka would fall under the National Firearms Act - Destructive Device category so once you locate and pay for it, simply complete the Form 4/fingerprints, pay your for the tax stamp(s) and wait somewhere between 8 - 16 months to get your tax stamp and it will be yours all nice and lega...

Re: Dicks Sporting Goods

As long as we are pointing out anti-2A companies don't forget the recent Benchmade Knife anti-2A debacle. I was in the market for a new knife about the time that issue exploded, went with a Made in the USA Kershaw Blur instead of a BK when their actions and political contributions came to light.

Re: Gulf Red Snapper Season Set by FWC

I don't disagree with the sentiments but 30 days is better than 6 days like we had a couple of years back. Maybe the recent legislative/administrative changes will reflect more opportunity in the near future. One thing for certain if snapper season is open the wind she'll be a blowin :lol:
