    Smile Chubathon 09

    Well we got here... Mother nature did not want to play nice nice though. Our crossing was someplace between gut wrenching and flat out crummy... The boat definately is a different girl with all the weight we had on her and 25kts of beam beating took its toll on a couple tower welds...

    Now the good news. Despite the rumors of Chub being shut down and done we have a half full marina, plenty of fuel and power. Plenty of great company to be found on the docks and the island is well kept.

    Customs man was backed up big time wth commers and goers so nothing got done yesterday... Violent storm caught up to us in the night and worked over our eisenglass.

    Today the wind was still howling from the north west and we spent the morn moving stuff around, setting up camp, doing little repairs and tearing up some entenmens donuts...

    This afternoon I wanted to just test the waters real quick for dinner. A dolphin was quick to respond and I tucked inside to do some jigging... We punched the ticket on a couple buckets full of bigger than usual strawberry groupers a few yellow tails and then doubled up on a couple slob reef donkies in the 50-60 class... Not bad for an hours worth of work...

    This wifi here is painfully slow but seems to work a bit.Tomorrow afternoon we'll tuck back out and may try dragging a spread for a couple hours...

    Why would you want to catch marlin when you have an oppurtunity to catch an AJ plus they are to die for on table for dinner!!!

    Does this fishing kick off the countdown for the 2009 Chub 100 billfish roundup? 27 more days to reach the century mark
