Title: Post Christmas Bananza
Post by: Newell Nut on December 30, 2014, 11:02:57 PM
Had a great trip on the Pastime Princess today out of New Smyrna Beach, FL. The kings were biting good and one mahi got into the mix. My buddy Larry was in on the action with his new Navy Rod that I built for him and pictured in the rod section a few weeks ago.
The kid in the picture starred in the Bad Grandpa movie. If you have not seen it then go rent it. It is really funny.

The smoker king won the JP for the day and was my first of three and a few bonita.

Fun catch..! I remember that kid in the movie well. He played a great part in a very funny movie. I just happened to watch it the other day.

The Boss might consider that first pic for a Photo of the Month contender.

Best,

Just wish my grandson could fish with me sometime. They were going to come visit last week and fish before Christmas but all had the flu.

Captain was playing good great grandpa hooking the bonita and letting some kids reel them in. It was a fun day for all.

Next year's fishing starts Friday so hope it is as good as 2014.

I believe that is a narrowed Newell P533 with a Tiburon narrowing kit.
