Default Too Long...

TO ALL THOSE WHO CARE, FROM THE YOUNGER ONE: Well Ive thoroughly enjoyed my first semester of law school at nova. The truth is I can't wait to chase some big swords. Ive caught a couple of sails during the school year, but as we all know they don't compare to the swords. I've been out swording twice this semester. Once during dark side leg two and once last weekend. Both times it has been rough as sht, and not even a hit. I consider this unacceptable for team bullfighter. I am done with school on the 13th of Dec. and the swords better watch out. I can't wait. I intend to go to all powerpro on my reels so I am ready for the big boy... I feel sorry for any sword that is in our territory during the 13th of Dec until the 10th of Jan because they will end up either in my boat or in another captains boat who has put in there time and deserves a big boy (you know who you are). Good luck to all those who deserve it! :afro:

hell yeah im roughly.....a lot.....of miles from the ocean and i cant wait to get out there over the break. im sure we'll make it to miami for a week and we had better have good weather this time. Last time we were limited to the daylight hours which sucked.

Default Agreed, COMPLETELY UNNACCEPTABLE

Team Bullfighter:

Time to get out there and fight those "bulls" of the seas.

Get that gear tuned up and no holiday slacking. Did you see some of the fish that Dean Panos has been putting in the boat lately?

Seems like there are a few decent size fish out there over a buck and a half.

I've only been out there only a few times too in the past few months and that 200+ fish is still eluding my spread. Seemed like the last one we got, preferred the biggest squid of the bunch. It wasn't dyed red, it was just fresh and the size of a Giant Rollo (Caramelly chocolate), candy for swordfish.

I hope to catch that big one before 2004 gently slips up notch.

Good luck.

P. S. - If you are going to respool a reel or so, may I suggest you consider Jerry Brown "Line One" Hollow core Spectra. This would enable you to have the most simplistic line-up this side of straight mono-filament. It is spliceable without a glitch, long lasting and will finger trap directly to a wind-on strength monofilament. That is what I am thinking to do the next time I may need to respool.

To arms, to arms, to whack any boat thieves that dare consider to intrude upon the space of those Valiant fighters that do battle with the Gladiators of the Sea. RT

Chumin,

anytime, anyplace...

I got pretty much any gear that you need, If pops agrees (which he will), I will even have a boat... let me know when you got some extra room on your vessel, or if you ever have an itch to try out the Contender... Id love to learn some tips from a true professional... I may even teach you something (hey the sun even shines on a dogs ass some days :lol: )

Seriously, let me know if you ever need an extra hand out there, Id like to fish with you in the near future.

Especially let me know if you ever want to give floyds wall a try in the keys. My place is just minutes from snake creek in tavernere and I'd love to bag a sword in the keys (never actually tried).

What's up bullfighter. I'm always here man, just looking at pictures of swordfish and procrastinating. The work is rough here, especially with all the training in the pool. It's ok though, it makes catching swords that much sweeter. I was able to get out with Chum over over Thanksgiving and land one. I will be home around the 21st, maybe earlier if I'm lucky. Lets get a monster.

Chumin, My number is (954) 415-2489 give me a call any time.

Risk Taker, I have heard about Deans fish,... very nice.

I hear you about the hollow core but I can get the power pro cheap ( $99 for 1500 yards) I know Tek can get some deals on line... let me know if he can get a better deal.

We may have an abundance of beer, but beautiful women...not so much. I bear great jealousy for those lucky enough to attend a college with a myriad of hotties. Oh well, I will see them when I return to South Florida (but only during the day because I'll be catching a different kind of broad at night).

Default Got beer? Searching for "hotty" broads? I'm in.

Yeah,

Mercie said if I go after one more broad (on the dark-side), she is going to leave me. I will certainly miss my lovely wife.

Well, it is not really that bad but you kow how the story goes. Just can't ignore the Woman you've got, to go chasing after broads all the time.

Well look at the time, gotta go now and check my tackle box and make sure everything is packed, especially all the filet knives! RT

I have a feeling team "Bullfighter" is going to get one over 200! I might have to get out there one night with you guys.

I hope the seas cooperate...
