Paladin offshore charter 3/23

[eaglesfanguy]

Went out with Jesse Zuban, Jr., killed the big Grunts, and gag grouper.. Too bad they were closed, 6 to 8 gags over the 24 inch min, and 4 that were 31 to 38 inches.
Some nice Porgy's and other oddities.. What a fun fishing day despite the 4 to 6 seas.2 12 inch hogfish .. i was using 20 lb test with 20 leader, and got spanked a few times..
Bumped up leader to 40 and no breakoffs .. lost 5 hooks on some big fish with the 20 lb leader... i was out gunned . In the end we kept 96 big grunts and 5 porgy's. After deviding the catch we took home 15 lbs of fillets,What a wonderful day.

Sounds like a good day. I always take Dramamine when I go out. 4-6 ft seas a little too rough for me.

Only time i felt a lil peekish was when i took Dramamine.. Never again..
Good to go in my boat or a real captains boat.
My wife was a bit beat up 'Muscular" but she dosen't get sea sick anymore if she takes the Transderm Scop® patch scopolamine.

Naa, was too rough to see anything, plus we were only 19 miles out 50 ft of water.
