A little late to report this because I was waiting for some pictures but we took a charter on Monday and made a couple of drops. On the first drop we hooked up and boated this fish 45 minutes later. The length was 82.5 with a 48 inch girth and a pumpkin. The fish was caught on manual gear. We made a couple more drops and had no bites and headed home. The fish was reported the # was SWO11/02/2009Fl352. Fishing has been decent.

Actually my name is Shay, but i do fish with Nick on thE Bn'M which is the boat it was caught on but ill be sure to tell him. It was pretty nice catching this fish on the first drop and a nicer surprise finding out it was a pumpkin, it weighed 270 by the way. The guy from OC did a good job fighting the fish. i have some two more pics i was gona post in a little bit.

No offense... But you were posting this thread like you caught this aboard your vessel.. Give props where props are due... Nick and his family have put alot of time money and hard work into getting dialed in... So THEY can take charters out and put people on fish.... Nice going B n M crew!

No offense taken. I actually work for Nick on his boat. His family are good friends of mine. I asked Nick if he thought it would be a good idea to start posting our catches and he thought it would be. He was actually hear when i was posting this and helped with the pictures. He told me about you, he said he had a friend named Irie on here that was on a hot streak catching some fish consistantly up north. Hope it continues for you, good luck. Sorry for the confusion and am no way am I trying to take credit away from them, I fish whith him and his father alot.

If you were posting trying to boost buisness for them I suggest in the future posting that it was caught aboard the b&m and maybe also put contact info.... just saying... Just looking out for my friends as always...

Thats cool man. I wish nick would post on here. They are constantly on the fish. His brother used to post on here from time to time. I think it would be great if he was able to be part of the forum. Im sure when this wind lays down you guys should have some fish in your area. Hope you guys catch um up!
