Good luck to those who braved it.

Drove by Ft Lickerdale beach this afternoon and it was picking up ugly and sloppy.

Anyone have a ride for me next week?
Big stress going on right now and I know I will need an outlet very soon.

SPORTY ride out. SOLID 3-5. Occasional 6. Set up around 7. Lots of slashed baits, especially after the moon(lots of rats). Went 1 for 4 with a successful release on a barely legal pup(wish I had a tag). Sounder marking lots of action below but plans to go out tomorrow made me head in early. Laid down real nice for the ride in. At the dock at just before midnight. Tomorrow's another day.

It was a bumpy ride out! We set up at about 8:30. I was fishing aboard my friends 28 white water "Just Leaving". We got our first bite at about 9:45 pulled the hook shortly after. Sent them back out, my crew was green except myself and Rich.10:15 the 200 goes off and we are tight. 10 minutes later Danny has a 150 near the boat. I touch the leader for the official release, as i try to pull her toward us, she jumps and slashes and make a 150 yr run. Now Chad is on the rod, all rookies they have never even seen a 80wide ! Chad does a good job fight her and gets the wind-on back on the fish. We get her back next to the boat and send her on her way. Clean release from the corner of the mouth. Back at the dock by 12. It was a great ride home, it really layed down. We ran about 45kts the whole way back. You guys should have a good night tonight. Catch em up!
