Evolution report

Seabiscuit,Worknot,Bottom Dweller,Hog Farmer,Jimbo, and I decided to go on a charter today and do a little bottom fishin. We went with Captain Caleb who has done a great job of putting us on em in the past and today was no different. We had a livewell full of frisky penfish that Biscoto caught a couple of days prior. They evolved into a little something else by the end of the trip.



Hog Farmer caught this wild lookin critter.



Jimbo put a real hurtin on em today. At one point he caught six keepers in a row including this pool leading red.




That fish held the lead for a good part of the day until............



We were all pretty worn out and just sat back and enjoyed a pleasant ride home.



This is a shot of the crew. The pin fish evolved into a mighty fine catch.


It was another very memorable day for me today. Got to spend the day fishin with my dad and some great friends. Hope to spend many more days like this one. No complaints. Life is good. Slip.

Slip, great day on the water. It was fun to watch you and Jimbo put a hurting on those Red's, especially when he went 6 in a row! It must be something in the gene pool! Also it was fun to fish along side of Biscuit with his "Burgaw" accent! Haha.Thanks for allowing us to tag along, look foward to doing it again!

i see jimbo had his pre-requisite cluster of bananas sitting behind him in the second to last picture....i think the ol' man has proved red groupers dont care bout any stinkin bananas! and i guess Biscoto managed to keep his rod in the boat on this trip...pretty work! those poor canal pinfish just never knew what was in store for them.

what a day!

I laughed my tail off when I learned Jimbo's secret to getting them off the bottom. Glad to see you guys filled up the boat! Looking forward to the nex trip! See you at the strategy meeting tomorrow morning. Thanks for the report and pics!

Question about the orange/red fish..Is it a blackbelly rosefish?

I did, but Jimbo didn't. He lost his rod & reel overboard and Caleb somehow retrieved it again! Pickled rod & reel and all only made Jimbo more determined. He went back to work and got his six for six streak going immediately there after.

It is always a special day on the water when I get to spend it with good friends, old and new. The fine weather and catch a welcome bonus.

Cheers,

Well, going ont this trip I expected to have some laughs, and catch some fish. I was not disapointed. It was the highlite of the day to see Jimbo's face as he pulled in 1 after another red. Enjoyed it guys, till next time .
