Is It Time to Go YETTTT?

[Deep C]

For the love of all things holy! I am watchin the clock and callendar and go time just seems to be forever away... Had Missus Deep up a few days and managed to get her a fish or two but thats been it for what seems like forever.
I worked my stones off getting the boat ready. Hell I even shopped, inspected and shot down two potential boats for the boss to by this week. Tackle has been ready so long I made it ready again just for something to do. Topped the fuel tanks and oil changed last week. Made a 200 mile round trip bait run yesterday. Transferred 25 combat ready outfits to the hold of our battle wagon, laid $200 worth of munchies and soda in her stores, mounted a serious fighting chair today.
I look at my watch and its only thursday... I'm ready... I'm chompin at the bit... Usually the WMO to me means a crew who could care less about fishing and are there for the party instead. This time I have a great crew on the game... We did pretty well at Ma500 last year for our first trip. Worked on our game and brought it up a lot by the time Bacardi was done the boys were down right good...
Even when I do go Saturday its still more days til the lines in call...

I wanna go! I wanna go right now! Damn you clock! Tick faster!

paul what boat are you fishing?

[Deep C]

A white one...


Borrowing the Cammys Dad from Atlantic Highlands again... Usually I used to hire out to the owner and his groups but now my main boss cut the owner a deal to let us run it... Parked over between the scales and the fuel dock some place...


You know... The last hour and fifteen took like four days according to my internal clock... Damn it...

Box,
I'm lookin forward to seein you down there... Normally OC I kind of look at as just another day at the office but this year is different... I don't know why but I just want to get into the thick of it...

Paul,

Good Luck to you.. Hope to maybe run into to you on the dock or at the scales.

We'll be on an Albe "Defiant" out of OCFC.

Our mate out of Florida is on his way as we speak with his bag of tricks..

Looks like it will be a good week.

Ed, does that mean you're fishing it now?

[Deep C]

Hello Purple! Go get em and say hello to Mrs. Purple... Flordia guy? We don't know squat in Florida we migrate north to get educated and bring tricks back there...
Spoke to Curt yesterday he sounds better than a couple months ago and he's looking at late fall for a trip again..

I can't be sure but the last twelve hours have seemed to last close to a year...

Good luck paul! heard some good reports from guys fishing the southern canyons already! fishys are there!

[PurpleCedarPlug]

Larry, Yes. Decided last nite based on 3 things:

- It smells fishy
- The Weather looks good, and
- You sure as hell can't take it with you, so spend it now...


Paul,

Ms PCP says Hi.. Talked to Curt yesterday. He's feelin better and talking about some overnighters after the WMO. He also mentioned about heading your way in Nov.

I think thats whats got me squirmin... If theres fish on the new the rise of the moon should be really good... Two prong attack this year. We have a couple guests not dialed in on circle yet. They'll be first up at bat so I may well be pulling slob plastic looking for the zilla to start. If westart seeing white I have two spreads for them. A dink spread similar to ones we used for sails this year and then the combo spread like we fished Bacardi with.
My regular guys have experience with circles so that will be fine and if we rotate back to the less adapted they will have seen how its done. If worse comes to worse there is poke and pass allowed in this event so my mate or myself can even get to work and hand em off.
I am bound and determined this year.
