I think we know most everyone ... and we Houstonians extend a warm welcome to any and all new comers
to join us in our monthly Lunchons and Bi Monthly Couples Night's at a location near you.
The luncheons are really a great place to meet other fisherman.
I typically fish out of Tiki(Galveston) unless I'm running toward the floaters then I run ICW from Tiki and leave thru Freeport, but return via Galveston, if I have enough fuel. I have a GB26'.
As previously pointed out, John is the party organizer. John, when is our next luncheon? I'm in.
Kenneth,
I picked up and it is pretty awesome, I ran it at the lake and I was pretty impressed. I am now rigging it out with electronics, what fun that is.
Talk to ya

Will be in Key West fishing on the 7th if you do lunch have fun. Ed found your spool of leader material in the boat, will keep it for you untill I see you.
John, we have a few hungry folks. Are we on for Friday? I'm leaving at noon for Harlingen, but will return tomorrow. Also I'm fishing either Saturday or Sunday, depending on weather. Anyone else going or might have room for 1 more on the GB?
REPORT--Left GYB @ 6am and made it out about 60 miles on Saturday, with seas running 3' and very tight. It was rough in the GB, but still managed to run 25mph. Only found small snapper until we got to over 100' of water and finally found a few keepers, plus a nice grouper(maybe a picture later).
I(wife) had a wedding to attend so in a "hot" bite we had to leave. This is twice I have been out this year, and I'm concerned that the commercial guys really worked those snapper over. I did not notice any logs, boards, trees, etc that some were complaining about.
