OK. Later today, I'm going fishing at the 5 mile reefs to
target...sheepshead.

Sheepshead? Jeeze, that's like pullin up discarded bicycle tires.
Triggerfish put up a real fight and are worth eatin. Down Mexico way the
boys filet em for ya soon as the boat hits the dock. Triggers are
probably the fightenest fish pound for pound you can sling aboard.

Pound-for-pound, the lowly pinfish outfights all others...followed closely
by anything in the tuna family, and most fish in the jack family.

I've caught plenty of triggerfish. They are excellent eating, but a bear to
clean. But I never pulled one up and said to myself "damn, that was one
tough fish". I'd put their fighting ability on par with a small black drum
or a sheepshead.








Tomorrow, I'm hooking up the smaller boat to tow an hour and 50 minutes
across Alligator Alley and fish for Sailfish.

Would seem you have a truly trailerable boat then. Wouldn't want to lug
a Parker 25 that far.

Why not? I sold the 25' Whaler to my dad, and he bought a trailer for it.
My Sequoia tows it just fine.

I guess there aren't any jacks in the "Cortez"...

What "truly trailerable boat" do you pretend to have these days, Dave?

Can we assume you are speaking of yourself in whatever 'person' you
fancy these days?

Floriduh was once the place you set world land speed records. That honor
has long since passed to western states. Floriduh once had great fishing
and freedoms, not any more. The best fishing is now found on the West
Coast and Pacific waters. Would seem Floriduh has been religated as a
place for retirees and the non adventurous. Those with real
get-up-and-go, with true adventurous spirits, the non whoosies with real

And can you believe not one could defend the honor of Floriduh boatin'.
You'd a thunk someone could defend her and issue a few false positives.

There is nothing to defend. Our boating honor is unassailable by the likes
of you.

Skipper and Skipper.You won't catch much trolling down that dusty Derby
Cansass road in your rusty old Silverado with the same old stale bait on
your hook. Get yourselves near some water and sunshine.Your dispositions
will surely improve.

Yeah is sux down here.... 3 weeks ago a boat off Palm beach released 39
sailfish in one day..... I have never seen that kind of fishing off CR
or any other pacific local. Also... Our water is still WARM in the
winter and the islands are still only 42 NM away from our coast SO.....

Florida SUX... STAY HOME!!!!! A southern man don't need you around
anyhow..... (If all the yankees stay'd home, this would still be
paradise.... )
