Quick nipple/131 trip

skindeep · 09-20-2009, 08:31 PM

Ran to the nipple this morning. Arrived at daylight and immediately had a fish on. Turned out to be a barracuda. Fished until about 11 with just one mystery knockdown. Finally, caught a nice sail just west of 131 on a 30W. Had 5 kids under the age of 10 on board with all 5 peering over the side as I wired the fish. Needless to say they got an earful about the unpredictability of a fish at boatside. Ended up with two hurling over the side and called it a day about 12:30.

One fish with a bill is better than 5 without one. Good job

What a man! I have a hard enough time hearding cats on land much less 5 kids on a boat. Good job for taking them and showing what bluewater is meant to be.

Take those kids fishing, we need future deckhands! I recall when my youngest kid was under 10, it was a full time job just keeping up w/ him on a boat,but it was worth it.......
