team "Lite Catch" goes 3 for 3 wed.

LITECATCH · 04-17-2008, 08:02 AM

Capt WayneO, Grouper22 and myself found and caught 3 cobia yesterday. WayneO caught 2 and Mike caught 1. we tagged one, tried to tag one (the tag broke so we released him before he stayed out of the water too long) and we kept the one Mike caught to take back to West Virginia. great day on the water. we only broke 2 things on that trip! we had the control cable clevis break. (we think it got damaged when WAYNE broke the control cable!) and the live well pump quit. (corroded wire, fixed now).

hope we can find some big fish today!!

To keep the record straight--CAPT SCOTT broke the control cable clevis--I wasn't even in the tower!!! I was fighting a fish in the cockpit!! I also had NOTHING to do with the live well pump going out!! But today holds a complete new set of opportunities!!

Had a great time with Mike (Grouper22)on board.....maybe he can post the picture of him holding his cobia in one hand and 6 month old daughter in the other!! One happy family.

Scott, thanks for FINALLY letting me catch my first cobia of the year!

Good job Scott :toast

You probably already know this, but some folks may not: when tagging a cobia (out of water), have one man clampits pec fins to its side... it's SUPPOSED to sedate them long enough to tag 'em.

Congratulations on 3 for 3.
