Nice fish. :thumleft:

Say, what's that blue stuff with the little white puffy things floating around just above the land and water? :scratch:
We haven't seen anything like that here in the last month or two. :cry:

Weather has been awesome this July
No rain for the last couple of weeks, raspberry farmers are happy.

I should probably explain my comment about not owning a boat if I didn't fish
Yesterday was one of those days that if someone had offered me a buck for my boat and all my fishing gear I would have sold it all  :roll:
First thing heading out gps lost signal, turned unit off and on a couple times then it started working,never done that before

Got to first spot to fish and my brand new downrigger ain't working , a bad inline fuse holder ,repaired
and we are good to go till the downrigger on the other side takes a dump, just happened to have a spare one on board, swapped it out and we be happy for a while anyways

Besides my fishing partner Dave, I invited along another bud.
 He is one of those guys that no matter how big of boat you got it ain't big enough when he is onboard
He's kinda like a bull in a china shop
Thank goodness he only broke one fishing pole yesterday.......my favorite one

After 23 years of carrying around a spare prop I finally got a chance to use it yesterday........
We spun the prop on the big mo after hitting a rip tide.

Oh well, the boating part sucked.....
 but the catching was really good,fresh Salmon tonight :cheers:

Just another day in paradise

Sounds like Murphy and his law were aboard!

I was asked to go fishing with a friend many years back. It was ROUGH. He asked me to get the downrigger out of the cabin. Went to put it on, boat pitched, dropped the outrigger....overboard :oops:

I am really digging the blue sky and slick water!  Went out 25 miles on Sat (West of Anna Maria) and felt like a truck hit me on Sunday.  Fishing was challenging to say the least with a 2-3 mph drift and the loss of 2 complete rigs on what I think was a huge Goliath Grouper. The wind and waves never let up and it was far worse than the "Around 2ft" NOAA prediction. I have never had so much spray and water come over the bow as it was beam seas in and out with some nice swells riding b/t the wind driven chop.  Not dangerous, just uncomfortable, max speed in and out averaged around 22mph.  I really should have stayed in but I was in need of some time on the water.  Hope others may have had more luck on the fish dept than me.

Outside of that it was a good day!

Hey Bill,

Here's a fishing report from the great northeast. Like our cohorts in the south have stated, we here in the great northeast have no idea what that blue back ground in your photo is.  It has been overcast and raining for a month, plus the wind has been blowing from the south and the ocean is a whopping 52 degrees. Its like we're having April in July.  It did stop raining long enough for the first mate and I to venture out Saturday in search of the elusive northern puffer (blowfish).  We left the dock around 2 and anchored up.  After a half hour none of the  little buggers showed up so we moved to a new spot. At the next spot, I must dropped the anchor right on top of them cause they just hung out and waited their turn to be caught. Over the next 2 hours one after another came over the side until the port side fish box filled up and we started throwing them back. Can't say how many we caught but 56 made the ride home. Not as glamorous as fresh salmon but now we can have blowfish nuggets.....bacon wrapped blowfish...and there's baked blowfish....deep fried blowfish...blowfish scampi....and then broiled blowfish....and a blowfish sandwich...blowfish salad...

I agree.

I'd like to see this blow fish bonanza. :cheers:

Day two with rain late PM.
Winds shifted from the south to due east, 15 mph steady.
Usually, this time of year in the Big Armpit the winds and rain aren't the problem but the heat is.
100 degree days, every so often isn't unusual but we haven't seen 90 in a month and a half.

That damn Obama. :roll:

Whats the northern puffer look like?     Sometimes well keep a big one down here, skin it, de-poison it n fry it like a chicken drumstick. Crunchy tail is good too!

Ok, not really "fish", but shellfish.  Here is a pic from opening day of 2013's scallop season.  That's a 54 qt cooler - holds about 10 gallons of scallops (our limit) plus ice.  Tasty little guys!

Had scallops for dinner for eight days in a row. I could eat those things everyday, Delicious!  Can't wait for the next scallop outing.
