Good luck bro. As much as you are thinking about it you better focus on not getting a splinter in your lip from when you kiss the dock when you return.

At least its starting to calm down, but look at the 6:30 wave height.

I kept telling one of the guys it was going to settle down when we got on other side of rip, man was I wrong.


Ohhh, that is always the line.

When we get to the rip itll lay down.

When we get out the pass

When we get to deep water

When this little line passes

When the sun goes down

when the sun comes up

When the wind lays

Yaddda, yadda, yadda,

Seems like everytime I go out it is like being in a washing machine

I worked on a shitty six-pack for a couple of years. Take your bonine as directed. The night before and when you wake up.

Had a lot of assholes come straight to the dock from Rome's and I caught all their fish because they were weak bitches. This was when the limit was 4. Catching 32 snapper by yourself fricking sucks.

Why people enjoy bottom fishing is beyond me.

So I need to come up with some new material?

I laugh when the guys come from east coast for the first time and they tell you they fish in 10-12s all the time. They find out real quick the washing machine is an entirely different animal.

I don't get sick when it's rough, but the slow rolling swells get me every time.

I assure you I have been in 10' seas however not by choice. We were at the lump about seven or eight years ago when the frontal boundary was predicted to stall. We ran out and dropped the hook and started fishing. About 3 hours into it VHF started going crazy with leave now front not stalled. By the time we got our stuff together you could see armageddon between us and the mouth of the river. The river was also at 14' at the time. We got about 5 miles off the lump and it started to get rough nothing major though about 4' by the time we got within about 10 miles of the river it was awful. Then we got within a few miles of the mouth of SW pass ( we considered running around to flatboat but open water was just too rough to do by the time we would have gotten a lee shore). We began to see debris from other boats trying to get into SWpass that had been nocked out of their boats. I have no idea how high the seas were coming into SW pass but reported wave heights in open water were 10' they were worse in the pass. We were in a 36' Contender and at the tops of the waves it felt like we would flip over backwards. It wasn't my favorite trip.

That's why I stick to inshore.

When my family used to own their seafood dock in Venice, I used to see big commercial boats come in during or after cold fronts with busted windows. That's a rough place to be with those strong cold fronts.

Had a terrible experience in the pass. Headed out in TERRIBLE conditions on the promise of great offshore seas. Dislocated my patella on the side of the boat heading out. No 10 footers, but we were in a big Yellowfin and you could just see a wall of water above the port transom when the waves were really rolling.

Laid down out there about 15 miles, and had a great trip
