Thank you Chris for a fun day on the water.
Very good day today. Maybe not catching wise but just a great time. I fished with Chris & his brother Dave. Boat 30' Mako right in his back yard. He had every rod holder full with his rods and said I didn't really have to bring anything. Feels funny fishing with out my own stuff. I did bring small tackle bag, the wrong one of course. And my lunch. Didn't really have to bring that either as Chris even had extra food! LOL ,
Like I thought we had to run thru the PP canal to get out, an interesting ride. Especially on the way back in with all the staties running full boar out while we were runnin back in thru the canal. Ran south out of the inlet and ran down to Lavalette to do a little spoon trolling . No wire, he uses downriggers. No fish to be found so we headed north about 3 miles from the inlet and spent the rest of the day drifting for Seabass & Fluke. Dave caught the only keeper fluke. Not a lot of seabass but the ones we had were keepers that we didn't have to measure. Only kept 3 and the fluke for dinner. We got in around 5:00, & it was like fishing with Bob & Pat Kamienski, They wouldn't let me do anything. Dave cleaned the boat, Chris cleaned the fish. Then he didn't think that was enough fish so while I was washing up he took some of the fish they caught yesterday and put them in my cooler.
He mentioned that he plans to run for tuna around the middle of July and he def. would like to have one or two guys from the club go with them. I said I would probably be on a cruise then but that I do know a couple of club members that might be up for that. RIght Mike, & Greg?
I think I found our next guest speaker too. How about a nine year old that can throw a cast net? While I didn't get to fish with Chris' son, Chris, I did get to watch him throw his cast net from the dock and he handles that net a hell of a lot better at nine years old than I ever could. 
Guys shoot Chris an email and get out there and fish! If you happen to have a son around 9 even better. I am sure you would both be welcome.
