Fishing Megathread: Looking For Big Girls Who swallow
The fishing down here has been insanely good this year. The sailfish bite is on fire and it is CLOSE in - some days we are fishing as little as 12 miles from the dock. Our last few trips have resulted in 24,24,18,29 and 35 releases. The last few days we’ve done a little sail fishing, released a blue marlin, a 60 pound dorado plus some smaller ones and then targeted tuna for a change. We hardly ever do that but we had some guys that really wanted tuna to take home. I had forgotten how good the tuna fishing is here. Fish are 100, 150, 150, and 176 (weighed).

^ yup that’s the best budget option. For purely tuna the best boat down here is Good Day. I think they can be booked through the marina https://marinapezvela.com/fishing/. Steve Hoyland is a buddy who owns a center console and can do a little of every kind of fishing (tuna, inshore, billfish)he has one of the best captains around 832-526-4917 July can be rainy. And rough. Or not. All the above are smaller boats and there are a couple of great larger boats available if you want to be more comfortable. You’ll pay a lot more. I should be down around July 1st, at least we are shooting for that date. I’ll take y’all if I’m there.

The gambling is definitely a part of it, but yes he actually fishes and I have heard he is pretty good. It makes sense because the better anglers all have excellent refelexes.

Shotgun start at 7am. Can’t wait. We are feeling pretty good about our chances but many of the top teams in the world are here so everybody feels pretty good this morning. We will stick with our usual plan of trying to find our own fish, rather than fishing where the majority of the fleet will be fishing. It’s a gamble because you can get way behind pretty quick doing that, but it can also payoff big time and has worked well for us in the past. The total payout of almost 3 million is a new world record for an all release billfish tournament.

When you are worth 4 billion it’s sure not a problem. But he really does love to fish.

Dream big. This is Michael Jordan’s boat that was out fishing by us yesterday. It’s a 15 million dollar 82’ Bayliss called Catch 23. I waved but I think he was still inside. He’s in town for the Pelagic Rockstar tournament we are all fishing this weekend. It is the highest paying all release tournament in the world.

No idea that game was even going on. Looks like I didn’t miss much.

Sean Miller is already losing me
Then I suggest a thread title change to “CDC is losing me”. Also if CDC is the one limiting our budget to go after players whether they are recruits or portal it is news to me.
