How is it down there right now. Hope the winds have decided to drop below the 40 mph range. I will be down there the 28th thru the 3rd of Sept. Planning on a little offshore fishing. What about the king fish, are they still in pretty close.

I have been down every weekend since the end of June and have caught a bunch of kings within 5 miles. I'll be down there until the end of October, if you want to hook up and do a little fishing.

Thanks Bullit, I just might give you a call when I get there. Every time I have been down there this year the wind has been blowing so hard you can't get out of the slip.

Well I hope Gustov stays East of Port A. Don't want my boat to wind up out on the highway somewhere. Think we will go anyway and just see how the fish re-act to a Hurricane. Port A here we come.

Have fun in Port A Mike.. see you at TASF Sept 27 on Fork

Thanks Bazz, wish we could get a group from the forum to go sometime.

I'll go T-Daddy!

Well Honey get your gear ready then cause I'm gonna set it up for the near future. If we can get enough to go.

Okie Dokie! Will my cool Zebco Hawg rod cut it? (It matches my chair and tackle box)

No that will not cut it down there. Get the old man to get you a good rig. Naw, just kidding, I've got all the equipment. Just get on the boat BOBBY........

I'm riding down with you!

Anytime Sweetie, just let the old man know we will be gone for about 3 or 4 days.

what am I, chopped liver ? Let me know when, and I will check the schedule - might have to call in sick

Mike I'd be glad to help get a group together.. Bristow. SK Ronnie, Red Ranger, JP... ect most have their own rigs and have caught Tuna so you know they can hang.

I have some loaner gear that will handle offshore Kings, Dorado, Amber Jack.. Black fin etc..

Bazz, we can make this happen here after the Hurricanes get thru. Every time I plan a trip well, Here comes one. Sounds good to me. let's do it here in a few weeks or so. Mike

Ronnie, or should I say Chopped Liver, Got the Pooper fixed just for you and Bristow. Every thing is working pretty good. Mike

shoot man! all i need it some TP and a bucket Bristow needs all that fancy stuff

I aint afraid to do my share of the deck washing, bait cutting, boat cleaning, etc... My A.D.D. as my wife calls it, keeps me going 90 mph

What kind of electronics are you running we need to make sure you are up to date with the Navionics maps

Standard chartplotter with chip for the area. All electronics radar, ship shore radio good for 75 miles, depth finder, auto pilot, and all the trimmin's. Even got a handheld gps for the back-up. Beacon and all. By the way Bring your own T.P. and bucket. Not furnished on this trip. LOL

tp and bucket.... shoot no- jump in the water and "chum"

If you need extra crew I'm game. Have all my own gear and such.

Went out with Captain Terry recently out of Port O'Connor.

Was a good trip... I really like the new boat he bought. WorldCat 34' with twin 300's.

We went out about 65-70 miles for tuna when we could keep the Shark and the Bonita off the line. We landed some good sized tuna (25lb - 35 lb) and it was a good day in all.

Well we finally got to go out for a while without a 40 to 50 MPH wind. Caught 5 real good kings Friday. Went out Sat. for a while was drifting for Kings and the Port side motor just shut down. Limped it back in on one motor and finally got to the dock. Have Ya'll ever tried to park a 46 footer in the slip with one motor. It can't be done. Got her to running Sunday Morn. Got her out in the channel again, put her on pad and she shut off again. Turned around put her back in the slip and called the mechanic. Hope he gets her to runnin cause we really want to get back down there. Hey Ronnie the pooper works great though.

Hell I'm down to go fishing as well got all the gear aswell and a 30ft cat. Cats in the shop right now but should be out this week. I love going with new people a very good learning system. Everyone has there own ways of doing things ya know
