To the boat that said stop here we are catching fish. Thank U. 14 miles out of Pensacola pass on Saturday. I did catch some fish one that looked like a bird. Released all of the fish. I'm from Mentor, Ohio drove here in the Snow had to get on the water. 23 Wellcraft alled Maui. My big motor stoped running about 3 PM. Started my 9.9to run in 5-6 mph. what a sloooooow ride. went under the Bridge by Texar bou & found 3 fellas stuck under the bridge (dead batt) towed them to the ramp. finally pulled the bout out at 8:30 PM. All in all a wonderfull day on the water. To all the other fisherman I was flying a destress flag & not one of u even stopped to see if needed help. I would have stopped for u.

Be Safe. Thank God my 9.9 ranall the way in. Ohio fisherman I need to look up every fish I catch to see what it is.

23 Wellcraft CC 250 hp Merc. & 9.9 Honda kicker.

They probably didn't know what the flag meant. Sad, but a lot of people don't know. Next time try the radio or waving your arms, because unless they have a capts. license chances are you are wasting time with flags and day signs.

Anyway, glad you had a nice trip and made it back in.
