I went out:
Weds, March 29 out of St. Augustine, out to 47 miles. Absolutely picture perfect day, ok, maybe a little cold. Seas very flat and made for good speeds. 1- 36" Red Grouper, 1- 24" Skamp Grouper, limit of Beeliners, 14 Triggers and 43 Sharks to 36". Saw LOTS of turtles basking in the afternoon sun. The worst part of this day was the morning launch, there was a very large twin Merc Verado, Yellow-Fountain parked in a real poor spot on the ramp loading with "C&H Lures" down the side. Must be nice to be either pro or rich, you can act like a jerk and don't have to care what everybody else thinks. I inquired at C&H the next day and they said they were filming something for TV???? Sorry, that makes it ok.

Thursday, March 30, out of St. Marys. like glass to 40 miles early, then a little more wind, rougher past 20 miles towards afternoon, brunswick snapper bottoms. Stopped for bait at (if I remember correctly)R4, lots of liveys. Seabass, beeliners and a few flounder and another 30 plus sharks to 3'.

Sunday, April 2, back out of St. Augustine to 47 miles max. Beeliners, few triggers, 1 - 15lb red snapper, 1 legal red grouper, couple of seabass. Another 40 sharks to 3', and 1 4' barracuda, 1- 7' plus hammerhead swam up to the boat, absolutely beautiful. Little rougher out past 20 most of the day. Several boats out that far, couple went further.

Incredible amount of sharks( numbers are not made up), no dolphin sighted. No trolling, all bottom fishing. I'm whipped, no more for a week or so! Watching a scantly clad brunette (thong bikini) (weather it was right that she wore it is still to be decided) and her boyfriend put a pontoon boat on the trailer on Sunday was probably worth the whole day.

Just a bit of info for you who would like to know..................

Sorry, I should have known better. I have been using squid and Spanish sardines and cut bait. We caught live bait at R5 for fishing the Brunswich Bottoms on Sabikis. I went with friends, once on a Donzi and the others on a Twin Vee. I have a 23'6" Sailfish that will soon be making it's way out there. I cannot change my name here, waiting for Wiley I guess and I have never been able to change anything on the Control panel. I have posted several requests but still can change nothing. I'm actually going to create a new email address and start all over again.
