With all of the talant on the boat I am sure you guys can coax one into the port, even better right to the dock :lol:

Hopefully this NE wind that has been blowing for the last two weeks has blown them into 150 feet :lol:

Nick C · 10-31-2006, 02:05 PM

Nice weather... Someone may want to put a safety line on TD...

Tuna Devil · 10-31-2006, 02:09 PM

Wait..... I resemble that remark.

Gaitor · 10-31-2006, 02:13 PM

With those weather conditions, mebbe 46 guys puking Coronas over the rail will just numb the sword .... no need to set lines :lol: ... just poon him along wif da punkins.

just2fish · 10-31-2006, 05:14 PM

it just dawned on me i dont know how to get the the boat. i need directions please. when the weather was rough my dad would tell me to make sure i ate something the fish like to eat. this trip might be one of those trips....

Captain Joe McGivern · 10-31-2006, 07:14 PM

QQ,

I will donate 6 boxes of Bonine to the trip. I am sure they will be needed :lol:

neptune · 11-01-2006, 12:14 AM

I feel much better now knowing those 10 footers may feel like only 8 footers. :shock: of course the drift sock will slow the roll to a minimum like only 45 degrees or so :shock:

DIRTYFOOT2 · 11-01-2006, 08:47 AM

Weatherman was wrong about last night. They were calling for 3-5. We trolled out 15 yesterday afternoon in 2-3 in the Stream :shock:. Went inside and by 7pm it was 1-2 beautiful. Hopefully there a little off on the sat forcast as well

I wish the trip was Thurs night :cry: Sat night is looking not nice :???:

Nick C · 11-01-2006, 04:16 PM

Well this sucks. It's all TD's fault... damn snow bird

:lol:

Fishalways · 11-01-2006, 07:38 PM

Well, I have had no sucess getting anyone along to film this.

I would be willing to do it if someone can get some equipment.

At the very least I am bringing my digital vid camera. I just don't know how much footage I can get due to batteries. Whatever I get I will put in a format that allows posting and will edit it the best I can.

Anyone have any ideas to work on this?

Shark Tagger · 11-01-2006, 10:13 PM

Are you sure you boys dont want to post pone this until the following Saturday? I read the post though and think it will be a good time even if you dont swordfish...

I sure hope the weather man is wrong though....

Good Luck

PlayingHooky · 11-01-2006, 11:12 PM

What's the freeboard on this boat? I may be able to hit a floating pumpkin if its less 12 feet away.

ops:

quack quack · 11-02-2006, 07:31 AM

yeah I was thinking about next week to but that has no guaranty either so we will go as planned and maybe just maybe we will get lucky.

catching · 11-02-2006, 08:11 AM

hopefully the forecast will be wrong but the way they were eating last night might be worth it, just everyone might need their own personal safety strap :lol:

Verado06 · 11-02-2006, 09:09 AM

I say go for it as long as the seas are less than 7 feet or so. We take out our seavee in the rough stuff quite bit...

I know captain cary hanna fishes the rough stuff too... You'll probably be the only boat out there and only lights in the water.

PlayingHooky · 11-02-2006, 11:40 AM

SATURDAY...NORTHEAST WINDS 20 TO 25 KNOTS. SEAS 9 TO 11 FEET.
INTRACOASTAL WATERS ROUGH IN EXPOSED AREAS.

SATURDAY NIGHT...NORTHEAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS BECOMING 20 TO 25 KNOTS AFTER MIDNIGHT. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET NEAR SHORE AND UP TO 8 TO 10 FEET IN THE GULF STREAM.

INTRACOASTAL WATERS ROUGH IN EXPOSED AREAS. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS.

quack quack · 11-02-2006, 11:51 AM

Bring some small rods for the icw trolling

quack quack · 11-03-2006, 07:50 PM

Got a couple spots so pm me soon for a spot.No matter what this is going to be blast.

We are going to try and make it to the 50 but if the weather is bad I will not risk it.I am going to make sure we all have a good time Even if it is a sword/jacks in the ditch trip.We will have a blast and the raffle is reason enough to go.We also have to help TBF and join

Uncle Buck · 11-04-2006, 10:29 AM

NEW INFORMATION!!!!!!!! (as of 11:25am, Saturday)

Quack just called me. He's having internet issues and is currently unable to post.

99.9% chance that the "swordfishing" part of the evening is cancelled. Just step outside and you'll understand why. BUT THE SHIP WILL SAIL! The trip has been downsized to a 4-hour ICW cruise, which also means the price is reduced to about $25 per person.

All raffles, seminars, contests, fish stories and TBF membership drive WILL proceed as planned! And if ya wanna drag some baits in the ICW, that's fine too! :lol: "Pumpkin-Pooning" anyone? "Biggest Jack on a 50" contest maybe? :lol:

The Catch My Drift has a large air-conditioned cabin if it rains. The food (B.Y.O.F.) will still be served. The beverages of your choice (B.Y.O.Cans) will still be consumed. And of course, the Billfish Foundation will gain a few more members and support.

And if y'all are bummed about the weather, just think... TunaDevil drove 1,100 miles to be here this weekend! :shock:

See ya at the dock. -->UB

Captain Ollie · 11-04-2006, 12:08 PM

Everyone refer back to QQ's very first post on this thread right now. :roflmao:

Being the fact that its SUSTAINED at 30kts out there right now I would actually just show up at the dock to see you guys off. As the boat drove off you would all see me doing this from the dock.

:roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao

Now if only we could charter the sea escape for the next trip I would go even in this weather. We would just need to make longer gaffs and darts.

Shark Tagger · 11-04-2006, 12:30 PM

Ya, he said the boat would go if the seas were not greater than 6 to 7 feet. The seas are obviously much bigger and the capt/crew is still going to have a good time in the ICW tonight.

GENERALturtle. · 11-04-2006, 01:33 PM
