trip trade?

UFgator · Post by **UFgator** » October 15th, 2006, 3:06 pm

i have a Pathfinder 19 that is capable of getting to some of the closer reefs / grouper spots, if the seas are right, 2-3' seas aren't bad in it, not great, but tolerable. F

Would anyone be interested in trading a skinny water trip for a trip to the reefs / wrecks?

does this make sense?

Ain't no boat big enough to take a Gator offshore either...

Gator, do you fish any inshore?

mainly what i've been doing, when i've fished, which hasn't been much lately

friday was the 1st time i've been 'offshore', if you call 35-45' offshore

I call 30 ta 50 foot offshore every time I go out there in my 17.5 Bass boat

who asked you

(i've known this guy for about 30 yrs)

my 'grouper' fishing is limited to this time of year when they are in close, and the seas are flat, if it's more than 2' or potential for more than 2, i stay inshore, my Pathfinder is ok in 2' or less seas, but regardless of seas, i'm not going out there far

, i'm skeered

get your ticket yet?

Wevens was talking about depth.

I went trolling for grouper one day and a guy on my boat asked, "How far are we from land?" I looked at the depth finder and said, "oh about 26 feet."
