Slingah's Extended Play
 

After a little gentle nudging, I talked the big fella into staying for a few more days. Today we had non-stop action fishing with live Sardines. Most of the action came from Large False Albacore or Bonito as we call them down here. We caught nice fish up to 15 pounds and Matt needed some new thrills. After a GROWN up Cuda came along and scarfed down one of his bonitos we pulled a fast one on him and fed him back half of a 12 pounder and he fell for it. Minutes later, he had to wrestle his hands into this nasty critters mouth for a photo op. This fish was a solid 35-40 pig and we shot some pix and let him go. We also caught some King Mackeral and finished off the day torturing my pet Snook behind the boat slip before we retired to the ponderosa for dinner. Wish you all were here. One more day of fishing before you guys get him back!

his head must be spinning :uhuh:

I wouldn't come back!

George can you keep Matt until the fall run is over? More fish for me and the big guy :jump:

In July, you don't want to be there!!!!!
I enjoy FL early spring and late fall.

That's great!

Nice boat pic. Did that come with the Skiff?

Package deal. Thinks it his! He's only 2.

On the contrary! July fishing here is incredible and the place is nice and quiet. May-August has become my busiest time of year since the weather is so flat and fishing is good.

Just put Slingah on a plane, expect him to be depressed for a few days!
