In for the report! Purple and chartreuse is always a good color combo!

Nice fish and the weather differential would be hard to deal with but I think you figured out how LOL
I might make a nice trip/vacation after I have received my vaccination. Enjoy the trip.

Mitch went to pulling cranks.
And Dux, yes. That’s Brad in the very first picture at left. Slumping in the chair.

Man those are some Pigs!
You guys are doing way too good! Looks like you found a barber too. Y’all keep after em, great looking fish.
Nice fish !!!
How deep and how fast do you pull a crank with water that cold?
I wasn't on the boat for that catch, I was on nearby boat. But it's not real deep where I seen them fishing, maybe 6-8 ft at the most. And they were pulling Square Bill PICO's, and they don't run deep.Quote:
