Keaton 10/24/04

Well where do we start. Forecast was 5 - 10 and 2 or less, where. :bang: It was never less than 2, and more 3's and at least 10 or more wind. Had to slow going out for the quartering sea, but finally made it out to 50ft. Now we are again in search mode for bottom to fish as this is only the second time out. Well got to thank a member on another site "wareagle" for giving a tip on general direction as we finally found some good bottom. Now if we found some earlier we probably could have caught more, but seraching for something your not used does take time. We ended with 3 Reds, couple grunts and caught some shorts. Well at least I now have bottom #1 for Keaton. :-D

Yea TC, left without hat, or sun glasses, both should have been in the boat. :hammer: Sure glad I decided to turn that anchor into a breakaway or wreck, cause it would have been toast yesterday. Could not pull up enough to break the wire ties, but powering out broke them and we got it up.

Something for the freezer and some more experience with your new boat.
All sounds good to me.
Nice one Don. :thumbup:
