    Sailfishing in "Deep Land"

    Left NC Friday morning with my fishing partner of 20+ years for WPB and a few days of chasing the pointy nosed ones and some much needed R&R. Had a boat lined up out of Sailfish Marina on Singer Island for Saturday and Sunday. Lines off early and headed south out of Lake Worth inlet for a short run, setting out the kite for our first drift I look off to my left and see a familiar name on an Albie with a crusty ole skipper barking orders at the crew – none other than the legendary Deep himself!

    I figured we must be in the right spot with the company we had and it didn’t take long to tie into # 1 for the trip.

    We ended up going 3 for 4 on Saturday and got our azzes beat up pretty well by the end of the day.

    An added bonus of a smoker king caught on a mono rig.



    Day 2 was a bit calmer with an East wind and the fish were cooperating as well- we ended up with 2 double releases and going 5 for 5 for the day. Throw in a bunch of dolphin, boneeters, and a few kings and we had a killer trip. By 1:00 Sunday Miss Sue told us she could not take another turn on a fish – she was slam wore out. Those Florida Sails can be a bull headed to say the least.




    Flew back to NC in time for Christmas dinner with the family. This was one heck of a trip and a close out to our 2007 season- might have to make it an annual event for Miss Sue and I.

    Best of luck to all in 08!

    Cheers,

    Mike

    Neato!!!....

    Glad you made it out and scored big! There was a wad of them holding in there. That was sure a great condition with those swells that day. I'll take that stuff any day...

    Looks like you were fishing with Mark... Great guy...

    I just got back from Key Largo with the 31 to use for the next few weeks... Oodles of life on the way up today. Boss man got in too late to play. He wants to dead bait tomorrow for a couple hours only. Relaxed week in front of us...
