Well, NOOA changed my plans today and I went trolling for Groupa

Burned 1/2 a tank of gas "that's a lot for me" trolled from 8 till 1:30 and not the first Groupa hit

I did get 1 Spanish 18", 2 Bonita "bigger than the Spanish and a heck of a lot heavier" 1 Red well over 35"s " didn't measure" and had either a fairly small King or a really nice Spanish get off about 10 feet from the boat

Worst the seas got was maybe a 1 foot swell and just enuf wind ta make it comfortable

Met member BIG as I was takin out, looks like a fine young man and an avid fisher

I'd like ta take him out some time and get ta know him better

I enjoyed meeting you too, sir! Look at my report to see how my trip went.

I'm going to hold you to taking me out one day.
You told me that you were trolling because you couldn't anchor your boat. I didn't understand, since the seas were almost flat. What gives?

After sitting in the office all day and looking at the weather I couldn't take it any more. I was on the water at 3 and back at the house at 7. Final tally was 7 keeper grouper and six seabass, with one~27" gag. Most caught trolling.

Especially when it cools down and they move in.
