First trip to Outer Banks with Pics

[BPENDLEY]

Made our first trip to the outer banks last week and got to fish two days with Jay on the Bite Me. I first want to say thanks to Jay and Jeremy. Top notch in everyway. Also got to go visit some of dream machine boat builders over in Wanchese. Got to meet Ritchie Howell at his shop and he showed us around, super nice guy and builds one sweet ride. Got to see the Ann Warrick up being worked on. Great trip enjoy the pics.

BPENDLEY Good post. I believe Bayliss has a couple boats going. I always like watching them flip the big boats.....Mark

whats up offshore,
sent you a pm and talked with you a bit back when you hung that first blue. I was thinking about shooting you an email to see if you where going to do any fishing while I was over, but ran out of time. Yeah Bayliss had a 73 and that pic was the 80 enclosed bridge they are working on. They told me that had another they are getting ready to start. Ritchie had two 60's in the shop. Its good to see some of those guys still staying busy.

Really enjoyed having you on the boat.

Glad to see that Jay's fan club is growing. We even heard about him in Madeira last week from Jonboy on the Grander.

Ben- Just wanted you to know I really enjoyed you and your family on the boat- good conversation and good fishing. Excellent job angling your first wahoo and sail..... we should have creeked you... just kidding. Looking forward to fishing with you again.


PS- how was the wahoo sashemi? ours was excellent, thanks to you guys!

Jeremy,
the wahoo was the best, even better than any tuna Ive had. Glad you enjoyed yours as well. Cant wait till the next time I be able to get offshore. Back to the freshwater stripes and bass tournaments. Got a friend coming to banks next year and already told him about you and Jay. Good luck in all your fishing and tournaments.
