First trip to PLO

[Mako mike]

It was a good trip, and if I didn’t already have a anxious crew for Thursday through Sunday I’d stay home in front of fire place. Yes it was nice spending the day with great friends catching fish. Marty and I have made this trip together several times over the last four years and have seen a big decline in the fishery. I found it funny that marty and I were talking about the big fish we caught three years ago as if it was 30 years ago. It couldn’t have been too bad of a trip as Marty was well behaved. No yelling, throwing rods in the cabin from the cockpit or anything broken. I did have a snickers in my bag for Marty just in case he acted up!😎 Hopefully the weather cooperates for the upcoming trip so I can get it behind me and put her away for the winter! God did I really just say that! Sad but true!

I really hope to join you down there if I can get past the debris coming down the bay. I need to get one more trip in before winterizing on Sunday. Besides, you’re going to need a Buddy boat!!

Buddy boat? The way winds are looking I’ll need a bigger boat!

Wed looks cold, but winds are great for PLO. Mike, any way you can bump it forward a day for your crew?

I saw that but can’t bump it up may just bump it out

With the debris and the winds, I may be cancelling......

WTF
The two of you can't cancel This morning looks great with 6-7 mph winds; but tomorrow (Wed) is looking much better with 10 mph and gusts to only 12.

What are we "armchair anglers" going to do if you cancel I've got most stuff off the boat, scheduled to take it for shrink-wrapping on Monday, and already showing some signs of fishing withdrawal

Of course the smart thing to do would be for one of you to hire Greg (b faithful) and the other to hire Mike (Buzz's) and leave your boats home. The savings of either towing (Mako Mike) or running (Jeff) your boats down that way would pay for your portion of the trip

But nobody ever said we were smart All year, we spend $50/pound for the fish we catch just so we can use our boats

If you go, we need a detailed report. It looks like you two might be the last to post this season

Is this really going to be the end of 2018?
