Finnaly, just got my 60 hr trips in the books for te "New Pelican" this season. The departure dates will be 6pm ... Dec 17-20, 2017, Jan 7-10, 2018, and Feb 4-7, 2018. You need to arrange your schedule to be flexible enough to leave on these range of dates. It is the only way we can have the best chances to get out for that long, with our winter weather patterns. Price is $1000 per person, and you get to bring your own food and drink (18" tall coolers max) we have a propane grill, microwave, and coffee pot available for use. The Dec trip will be yellowfin heavy with trolling at the gardens for wahoo, and grouper fishing near there. The January trip will be a moderate yellowfin trip, with more time spent at the gardens for ajs, wahoo, and grouper. The February trip will be full on gardens area fishing for wahoo, ajs, grouper, and freightliners. 15ppl will be the maximum load on all of these trips. They are designed for advanced anglers, but novice are welcome as well. Feel free to contact me directly for information. Capt. James Wheeler Deep Sea Headquarters 361-749-5597

I'm trying to decide between December and January.
And No, I cannot afford both.

LOL I tried to scrape up the money for the April trip earlier this year. I had a plan. I went over every day for over a week during spring break and stood on the busiest street corners in Port A with my sign. I think over 10 days I collected $9.63. Spring breakers weren't very sympathetic. Let me check my lottery tickets and get back to you.

I'm trying to decide between December and January. And No, I cannot afford both. Tiff .... something to ponder while you are deciding. In December Wahoo should be good but would likely be better in January. On the other hand it has been my personal experience that tuna fishing is better in December than in January. Pick your poison. Maybe James will be along to add to or take away from that.

Capt. James, I would like to sign up for the January trip. Do I just call the front office to make payment?

If you had worn a thong and been giving ice for donations I think you would have made out better!
