First time out fising in the new blackjack today. Its a great riding boat. Very fishable even with the T-top. The e-tec is nice. Real quiet and smooth. It cruises at 8 gallons an hour The water pump is badass.

Had a minn kota talon installed this week. It as convenient and practical of a tool as there is. You dont move an inch when its down.


Fished the sulhpur mine out of PAC. Only one trout but caught 17 reds. Way too many boats to justify going there during the weekend which i knew already but i forgot how annoying it is.

Didnt take any pics of the fish today. Just a catch and release day. I'll repost pics of the boat and minn kota talon in a bit.

There should be a forum rule about fishing reports with no pictures. Should be auto ban.

well move it along little boy. Its not hard to imagine what redfish look like. I dont feel like stopping mid fishing and taking pictures of 16-22 inch redfish.

Lighten up, Frances. I wanted to see the Talon. Awesome boat!

Hopefully I'll be able to show you how to post a proper fishing report tomorrow. Going to Delacroix/Hopedale...haven't decided which yet.

Another thing...although some said they didn't like it, I like the T-Top. If that's in your way, you got too many friggin people on the boat.

Are you going back to the PAC Th and Fri? I'm thinking of going there Friday...but probably in my canoe. Depends on what I find in Delacroix/Hopedale tomorrow. I have a nice canoe/kayak spot in Reggio, so may wind up there Th/Fri. Although if you're catching that size reds in the PAC, that's what I'm looking for. I need some grillers. I got a buttload of specks in the freezer, but I'm outta reds.

I will probably go to PAC one of the days. I hear reggio/ delacroix is absolutely loaded with fish. I can show you exactly where the reds are at at PAC. They had 5 kayaks out there today although i didnt see one of them catch any.

I'll let you know (with a proper fishing report... ) how I do tomorrow, and if it ain't good, I'm all ears about where they are in PAC. Haven't been there in over a year, but always catch a few reds when I go.

Tomorrow, going with a buddy that has two commercial flats with Jet Ski engines in them. We're taking the bigger (18') one, but either of them will run in NO water. Only problem is if you have a lot of grass in the ponds...it's like a salad shooter and gets clogged up. But I ain't chittin...it'll run on heavy dew.

Any of you off Wednesday? I should be off. Probably heading back to PAC. We have been limiting out every trip. If I don't end up in PAC, I may head to Clovely with my pops.

Nice boat, saw it this afternoon in the neighborhood. You live in Sugarwood or dropping a fishing buddy off? I plan to make a trip this week (Wed or Thur) out of Dularge.

Ohface, we need to get together and make a couple of trips out. I have the shearwater z2200 we talked about we you first posted pics of your boat. We can take yours then next take mine. We went to shell beach Saturday morning and caught at least 50 reds. Kept 30 and gave others away. We were tossing them to other fishermen with kids who couldn't catch them. This was all within five hours. Going back this weekend as with the warm weather the trout should be on. All around stump, Pete's, crooked bayou etc.
