Man your getting me all excited about ocean fishing again. I was a fish-o-holic up here, then I went to the Keys and found out what fishing is really like. I haven touched my rods 6 times in two years.......crazy.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Nice catch! Reminds of trips out of S. padre when I was younger.

 Nice catch! Red Snapper season opened here this past weekend. If my brother in law had a boat like that we'd be joined at the hip. Especially if he paid for the fuel. :)

Cool- that's what I miss most about living on the coast.  I'm heading out salmon fishing on lake michigan on Friday and won't enjoy my catch nearly as much as anything coming out of the Gulf.

 Yea, Jeff; there's a big difference from that smell of saltwater when the Tides running at day break and freshwater. And, the seagulls sound different, too. :)
