BLACK CHRISTMAS...
I AM NOT DREAMING OF A BLACK CHRISTMAS.....NOPE.......I AM LIVING IT.
THE BLACK BOAT WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO FISH 9 DAYS THIS MONTH....4 FISH....9 DAYS....WE STARTED OFF HOTTER THAN KISS HELL....AND THEN REALITY SETS IN....5 STRAIGHT DAYS OF ZERO TUNA BITES. ....5 LONG BLACK DAYS OF WAITING...WATCHING...SEARCHING.......AND NO LOVE......EVERY DAY, WE SLOWLY GRIND IT OUT TO THE KILLING FIELDS AT 6 KNOTS...SOMETIMES 8....SAVING PRECIOUS CRUDE AND KEEPING THE DAILY COSTS DOWN TO A MINIMUM...
23 MILES OFFSHORE WE FISH HARD...TEAMWORK IS A MUST IN THIS GAME.... AND WHEN IT'S OVER FOR THE DAY...WE SLOWLY POINT HER TOWARDS THE HILL AND BEGIN THE TROLL OF SHAME.....THAT 3-4 HR SLOW WALK BACK TO THE INLET....STILL, WE HAVE NOT GIVEN UP....BUT AFTER SEVERAL HOURS OF GRINDING OUT BAIT BALLS .....WE NOW ARE ON A STRAIGHT COURSE HOME.....THE SST'S GRADUALLY DROP...58....57.8...56.9...55......THEN 53......AND WHEN IT HITS 49.9.....YOU THEN CAN JUST ABOUT SAY THE FAT LADY IS SINGING
TODAY THE BLACK BOAT CREW MET ONBOARD AND WRAPPED CHRISTMAS PRESENTS ......AND CORPORATE TUNA BONUS CHECKS WERE PASSED OUT FOR THE FIRST THREE FISH SOLD TO TOKYO....
LIFE IS GOOD ABOARD THE BLACK BOAT....
.....FUEL MONEY FOR JANUARY IS SECURE...AND I HOPE THE FISH CHEW MORE NEXT MONTH THAN THEY HAVE THIS PAST WEEK...IT HAS BEEN A WONDERFUL BLACK CHRISTMAS ALRIGHT!....NOW IF IT WILL JUST TURN GREEN NEXT MONTH...
TWAS THE NIGHT OF BLACK CHRISTMAS...
RUN-OFF SPORTFISHING....2010.....BE THERE!!!

A black Christmas looks better than a red Christmas in the books...I'll take black over red ink or parenthesis any time.
Congrats on being in the black.
Merry Christmas!

Glad to hear of a black Christmas over a white Christmas when it comes to this situation. Congrats to every team member of the RUN-OFF, without one or the other person who knows what could of went down. Its always good to know ahead of time that fuel money is in place, and the hunting can begin with a little ease. Hopefully the bite picks up for you guys and you get good weather for the last month of the season........
Marty, I sent you a PM if you didn't get it yet. Ill give you a call after the holidays are over to have a chat. Enjoy the next couple of days with the family.....
