Well, 9-12ft @ 7 seconds will feel more like 6-8... if that's any comfort.

If what you need is steaks, I'm sure I could spare a few
Vaccum sealer keeps 'em fresh as the day you store them.
There, now you don't need to go fishing.

Looks like the weather is on your side this week.
Good luck getting all your stuff together on time.

There, now you don't need to go fishing.

I still have a few slabs in there but you know how big the family is and when you have to cook 10 pounds for one meal it does not last long

Signed up for the Friday night trip on the CMD they have around 10 spots left. Going to try trolling for Wahoo on the way out to the grounds

It is still daylight now on the way out and you know you catch Swords during the day off Ft. Lauderdale so I will be hoping for a Wahoo On the way back it might be a different species crushing that Purple/Black Bahama Lure. The boat runs at 14 knots and since Swords have trouble catching a blue runner I am most likely wasting my time

the baits were slashed, chewed, and sharked all night, one guy fought a fish for 30 minutes got back to the top shot and the leader was cut by something toothy, they never saw the fish but assumed it was a shark
