Special congrats to our Golfito fishing friend Joan Vandergriff for winning top lady angler at the IGFA Offshore World Championships in Cabo.WMO is this week,and Charlie has an opening for 1 or 2,Tues.through Friday.Give me a call or EM if interested.
Nothing like $5.25 a gal. deisel to teach us owner/operators new strategies to persue our offshore affliction.Running out 60/100 miles to the good water @ warp speed and coming home is a luxury of a buy gone era.It reminds me of the very old joke of the young and the old bull standing on the hilltop looking down at a herd of cows.The young bull say’s “let’s run down the hill and fuck a cow”.The old bull say’s”let’s walk down the hill and fuckem’ all.Gear up and overnite for 2 or 3 days when you have the window.Spend quality hours on the hunt and maximize and diversify the box and the experience.Pura vida
Gearing up for 5 day trip to Banko Hannibal area.Blacks and Blues AND 300 lbs yellowfins are the draw.Charlie Tuna from Hatteras and Arthur D from Miami are joining our merry crew.Check out Marlin Mag.June/July(magnificent Montuosa) for info on area.Also check out article in On The Rip 2008 edition for story on our longtime fishing and hunting partner Capt. Tim Hake.
San Diego tomorrow with Inta and my Mom.We had a blog meltdown and lost our pictures.If you have some,put them up.World offshore championship this week,check IGFA sidebar.Got a good fishing report from Hatteras,here they come OC..
the big woods provided plenty of excitement.However if hunting success is measured by results I better stick to fishing.Many thanks to Don N. for putting it together.I’ll be in position next time.Laugh now Gobblers,I’m a quick study.
A traditional day on the bay provided a bounty of Striped bass and comradarie with old friends.Tomorrow we’re off to God’s country (Potter County)for a few days in the deep woods chasing Spring Gobbler.Pura Vida is a life style that’s waiting for you in any climate….enjoy the life
Work keeps getting in the way.Striper next Thurs. with Chris Rosendale.Spring Gobbler in 2 weeks with Don Nolt.California mid May to see lil Henry.
1200 miles,18 sails and a blue.Just heard from Paradise Fishing Lodge in El Salvador that Gorge is recovering from the billfish stab in his neck.Close call.We got out of Nicaragua in one piece.Always carry an extra case of cold beer.Thumper is secure and sound at home port,Golfito.Returning in July for Marlin bite at Buricca.
we are in San Juan Del Sur,Nicaraga having made port after another stormy night and an electrical fire to add to the excitement.Awesome fishing in El Salvador with many billfish and the best locale on the Pacific @ paradise fishing lodge.Great people,tropical location,all the action of the Guatemala grounds without the hassles.Twenty minutes to the international airport.Will attempt the Papagalos passage @ 5AM….50 mph winds last night.
We have our first grandchild!We are so happy.Baby Henry was born yesterday.Everything cool.We will catch a marlin(or 2 or….)tomorrow and watch it swim free in celebration.
