Oof.  You need to take Theresa on a vacation after this is all said and done!   

Heal up soon boss!  The halibut are rejoicing you are off the water temporarily.

I wish I knew you Back when I was digging up Carlsbad with my Excavator, we dug up some bones and they shut the job site down for a while to preserve a den of Prehistoric Saber Tooth Tiger fossils. It was pretty cool to see this first hand as the Paleontologist explained the scene to us and described this area as a spot where the tigers brought their kill......bones and skeletons everywhere !  Also found a Whale skeleton that was Millions of years old and watched them load it into a Semi Truck and haul it away piece by piece. Pretty cool Hobby to have if you know what to look for and you obviously do, Bravo and keep searching !

This is just mean telling me this.  My giant cretaceous ammonite site is now under condos probably because of you.  LOL

(I would have been there in a minute if you called!)  LOL

Very nice Jeremy!  I didn't know you wrote/sung before.  Listening to that song at one point gave me visions of Synalpheus regalis locked in a deep-sea sponge!

Good show.  It was the first time I didn't have my wife and daughter in tow so it was kind of dangerous.  I swore I wasn't going to buy any new lure, but I somehow walked away with a 25# box of stuff... Ugh



Talked with a bunch of new people and saw some old friends along the way.



I spent more time conversing than I did walking around and shopping.



The used tackle lot was FILLED with people, but I found some things that I couldn't pass up.  I picked up a lot of smaller lead (split shots, rubber cores, worm weights, egg sinkers etc) and found one of the big 240 Mad Macs that looked brand new for $25.  Much better than the normal $50 price tag in the box!





Even though the family wasn't with me, I traditionally went to Pizza Nova for my Mai Tai and Pie!





As I got home, I saw that I missed 5 calls.  I barely got any pictures, mostly because of that heavy ass box I was carrying all morning.  LOL

Let's see what you guys picked up!

Yeah, they have a grease nut that can be installed to prevent that.  I've had that happen as well as my neighbor on his boat.  I think I remember heating it up to free it and then installing the fitting and regreasing the line.  I have a hydraulic now, so just dealing with leaks and no seizing.  Hope you fix that up.  It's a boat "pain in the ass" type of issue.

If you upgrade the steering, then you won't have to worry about it for a while, where as this problem would most likely happen again if you just regrease it.

It was only a few years ago that it was 2 or 3.  It's very confusing just asking a general search engine the question since I don't know what year it is stating. I definitely need to dive in deeper when I get home for clarification.  My work security doesn't open the DFW site, as I guess that it detects the word "Firearms" in the body of the website.

Well, well, well... It wasn't an April Fool's joke after all!  Nicely done Jeremy!

I definitely need to go back and check the regs.  I knew of the quota cut-back for reds, but still thought Salmon Grouper were 2 and heard the new total bag limit would be 5 fish in combination.  I guess that isn't in effect yet, so I will definitely dive back into the regs and figure it out before my next trip.

Well done sir!

Is this an Aoril Fool's joke or are you actually fishing in the boat today?
