Fishing last weekend

[John R]

Steve - I could make a guess or too but I wouldn't want to cloud Hoop's thinking [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

John R,
Those particular snappers have a 10 fish per person limit
and must be over 12" in length. They ran 15-18 inches.
They came out of 140 feet of water off of Port Canaveral
and taste just wonderful (although I am partial to the Mahi's).
Everyone on board limited out snapper Sat, going back out
on Thurs again.

Hey all you guys up in cape cod, do you ever get a shot at giants? or are they too far offshore? Marc

Marc

As the guys here will tell you, there are plenty of SeaCrafts off shore fishing on a regular basis for giants. The spot lately has been the BB bouy (about 35nm SE of Monomoy and 25nm east of Nantucket). In fact the guy who I bought my 23 from fished there all the time. But, you really need to pick your days b/c that run in when it turns nasty can be awful. He took 14 market fish from this thing. I'm not sure if I am ready to run out there in this yet [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] . I need more time to become confident in the boat and all its' systems first. But the guys who run s/c's offshore do very well. Steve, aren't the guys like yourself who run aroung Chatham called the "Mosquito Fleet"??? Got Wings [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ???? -Hooper

SORRY-- my wing's were clipped...my mind doesn't work that far off shore. now I just go out to cod fish these day's.

[John R]

Ahah! That place was #2 on my thoughts of where you were [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] - first thought was a inlet at the end of a little river that almost decapitates... But the first place I thought of was just around the corner from where my wife & I had our honeymoon... Across the arm from B.B. & almost into the - Well, 'nuff said hehehe...

BTW - your son sent me an e-mail last week before my work machine blew up. I haven't had a chance to restore it yet so he can either reforward it to me or I'll get back to him once I've recovered my files... BTW - he's a smart kid if he's doing what he says. He's learning some topshelf technologies...
