We caught our limit of reds all 3 days, a smattering of mangroves and one cobia each day. We had a very low success rate on the cobia We also had a nice king on Friday. Sharks galore, including one big hammerhead.

It was a good weekend, but the staggered seasons are getting tough. When you can keep red snapper, half the other fish in the ocean are off-limits.

Much thanks to the Toonces family for showing us a great time offshore.

Worked on stuff most of the weekend then talked my brother into going fishing in the yaks in the Basin(his first time). Within the first 15 minutes he managed to flip over while paddling, still not 100% certain how he did that. Lost the anchor, set of pliers, and a couple rod/reels. Rest of the trip was spend paddling around and fishing a couple random spots but nothing to show for it.

Nice pics Hat. Have you guys noticed an increase in Lionfish this year over the past couple years?

You had a hell of a weekend.



I puked a bunch but some fellow OB'ers did well on the other side of the boat.

Caught 58 nice trout (15" - 18") fishing the beach at Grand Isle Friday. All caught on live shrimp about 2ft under a cork. Should have limited out but ran out of shrimp.

Great pics, Hat. I took a few guys out for my rookie experience as "Captain."

Trolling motor didn't work, had trouble w running lights, hit a dredge line, trim didn't work, got a bird's nest from hades, went east when shoulda gone west, almost got beached, got skunked at two more spots, starter battery died, 2nd battery a no-go, third battery barely got us home.

If it wasn't for my deckhand, I'd probably still be out there.

Can't wait to do it again!
