This has been a very busy week with 4 fishing trips and a gator hunting trip. The triple tail was really fun on light tackle and live bait in the intracoastal near Ponce Inlet, gator was a 12 footer near Orlando and kings offshore from Ponce Inlet on a VK3 jig from S&G Tackle in Staten Island. Next week will be busy replacing my roof. Retirement is a hard job. ;D

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Wow Dwight, that's a nice one! Now stop advertising certain things on your shirt while gator hunting ;D
Nice going buddy!

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Nice work Dwight!

Looks like you have had a busy week.  

How much did that nice King weigh?  Did it take the jackpot?

Awesome week Dwight. I must say that Tripletail is one of the best eating IMO and that sure is a nice one.

That was my first triple tail and wow was it good on the plate. Got another about 5 lbs and this big one was 12 pounds. One of the best eating fish for sure. Yes to John and the jackpot win for the day and I got the win the day before with a nice spade fish. Did not weight the king mac since it was clearly the largest fish of the day.

Greta way to be busy.....Bill
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

Now that's what I call busy.  That is one heck of a gator.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Wow Dwight, that's a pretty good week for a retired guy.
I woke today and suddenly nothing happened.

I did not tell all. I also rebuilt 6 newels for a close buddy, built one custom inshore rod and a custom gaff. The lack of sleep has me kind of run down. Glad the roofers will be here tomorrow so I can't get into another project.

Congratulations on three great trips Dwight.  It's a dirty job but someone has to do it!

Keep up the good work.

You're looking good Dwight! You're still finding time to hit the gym with all that fishing and gatoring?
