Ok, it isn't about sunfish. Sue me.  Just got back from a trip with 20 of the kids from my NJROTC unit. We went down to Corpus Christi to do an educator visit to the USS Lexington CV-16. For an educator visit you get to spend the night on the ship and get to see things the normal tours don't get to see. While we were down there we decided to take them out on a party boat since these are all kids from the prairies and most have never seen the ocean much less fish on it. We went out of Dolphin Docks on the Dolphin Express and did really good. The boat had a total of 65 people on it and we took full limits of Red Snapper and Atlantic Sharpnosed Shark. Most of the kids had a blast but we did have a few that had serious seasickness. All in all it was a good day on the water. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/90KopEW.jpg) Cheers Y'All. Life is good.

Awesome post Flags. Good work with your kids in your NRJROTC unit. A trip that both you and those kids will remember for a "Lifetime"!  Side Note: Nice haul.

Great job brother! Those kids will remember that forever. Feel bad for those who got seasick. Happened to me once in very heavy seas. In my defense it was so rough 80% of the guys got sick; all experienced at sea. But that is a miserable type of sick to be. Feels like it will never end....Just like these memories! ha ha
