P.U.O.S.U. 3 The Saga Continues

[Life's A Beach]

Before I post MY report from today, Captain Kenny and Chris asked me to do them a favor.


Seems a mix-up with their charter for tomorrow has them open. They rarely have weekends OPEN for blackfishing so tomorrow looks like a good chance to fish them. Rates (available on phone or on their website under Party Boats above) are VERY reasonable and it's a great boat to fish from!

Please call ASAP as Kenny has to make a decision tonight if he's gonna sail tomorrow. If he gets enough reservations, he'll sail!!!

Just getting home from PUOSU trip. I will Lab post his report as he was taking mental notes throughout the trip. Good time was had by all. Being a Chartermaster is alot of work and many times a thanksless job as it is impossible to cater to everyones need and keep everyone happy.

Just wanted to give LAB (Mike) a big thumbs up for putting this trip together and picking a great weather day. Report to follow.

LAB, thanks for organizing the trip and entertaining us through out the day. Special thanks to Smokey Joe for supplying the awesome food. Hope you feel better dude.

Great time fishing with everyone and congrats to the new PUOSU winner...

Met Bobber, Shrimpie and Loveshislab @ 3:30 for whites for their trips. NONE for our trip.

Had a text of a cancellation due to emergency @ his work; Down to 19!

Hit the OB Diner with Mickrazz, Snaps, Jigamafish Joe, Tats, JMurr, Stelios and Smokey Joe. Smokey Joe was sick as a dog and begged off. Took care of his responsibility AND gave us Mega Food for the trip; Pulled Pork, Brisket, Rolls and Coleslaw ... THANKS TOM, feel better!


18 Fares boarded and picked their spots IN ORDER. Kenny told us we were going SOUTH as he had a decent day Friday there. He's the captain and I trust his experience. Took us about an hour to get down on a wreck off IBSP. Joey Joe Murray took the Dollar Dollar Bill Yo first keeper; Good Job little man.

We picked a few keepers then Kenny tried another spot a tad further off. Again we picked a few keepers. We moved onto the reef and hit some reef balls without much luck. Moved to another wreck and picked again. Moved to some TANKS and we had some nice bottom. Stellie and I found a hole about the size of a cooler and had bites immediately (sometimes sooner) as our sinkers hit bottom. We both pulled 3 keepers each and about 8 shorts out of that hole. There was similar pieces around the boat. FinS had the same "hole" on the starboard bow. Most picked fish, keepers and shorts on these tanks.

We then went to a barge and picked some more. Sean Clam Strings found a honey hole and pulled 3 keepers and 3 shorts in 5 minutes while others picked. I was NEXT to him but didn't get a bite here OMG!

We headed home aroudn 2:30 with 50-60 keepers in the boat; all on green crabs!

We heard from others fishing all day long and no one had lights out fishing so I didn't feel so bad.

EXCEPT when I had to hear a certain few saying "Just heard from ToggyTime Doug that Loveshislab got a 5# & 7# doublehead on WHITES". or "Loveshislab got an 11# on WHITES on the reject trip". "How come WE don't have WHITES"
Both Stelios and Boston Pete will remain nameless.......opps did I say that?

Dave Tats read the post where I said "$85 exact change" and handed me 85 singles; at least they were all facing the same direction. Funny Guy.

Both JMurr and I dropped our cameras so there'll be a shortage of pictures.

Fishing the stern I got a peck. Foul Hook next to me got a harder double peck but the fish didn't commit. The fish then SLAMMED Mr Bling aka Robbie Swivels, picking his sinker up and swimming away. 2 minutes later the PUOSU eventual winner hit the decks @ around 5#.

Stelios is in love. "Stellie, are you texting her again?" "NO, I'm texting Wayne". YEAH RIGHT! Besides with those massive bear paws it takes him 15 minutes to type "Hi" I'm still funny.

River Rat is very stubborn. ON the tanks there wasn't bottom in the starboard stern corner (where he fished all day) but he didn't move. The Boat was listing from so many peepz trying to mug Stelios and I but not Rat.

Gerry "Rigs" Zagorski skates more than anyone I know. Gerry came to the boat with NO pre-tied rigs, no rig tying material and NO intention of tying a rig all day. Rat started him out with one and Chris the Mate made the other EIGHTEEN (18) for him. HA HA HA HA

Standing next to me when I was catching my TRIPLE LAB LIMIT, Gerry Z wasn't swinging at all. BUT every single minute he'd pull up his rig and the hook was empty. "I"m not feeling anything at all". We love you Mr Magoo. I'd see his rod tip bounce bang bang but he didn't notice.

Alex MVP and Al Cool Hand Fluke took High Hook honors with 5 keepers each. Good Job Alex and Way to show us you don't need Monger Wayne to catch fish Al!

Al Cool Hand will know be known as The Artish Formerly Known as Slim Beauty. Thursday Night is knot tying class Bro!

Stelios, busy whining about no white crabs and bullshitting with Clam Strings missed a monster bite. The ensuing jumping up and down sent shock waves for miles.

Mr Bling Rob and his partner Tony Foul Hook Swivels proved you don't need to use a "traditional mono to braid" KNOT connection to catch fish. "The swivel is like a shiny bead that attracts the fish. OK Rob, you've got the hat so I can't say shyte but Tony.................I'm seeing Mr T aka B. A. Barracus from now on when I look at you.

FinS donated his last Blackfish Longsleeve Shirt to the winner. Thank God Rob won. It was size XL. Thanks Booby!

Mickrazz was in a foul mood. At one point early in the morning he started working on reel in the cabin between drops. HELLO????? and btw it's NOT a wig, they're NOT plugs and they're NOT his grandmother's glasses.

Tony Snaps DOES have thick skin. I tried ALL day to get under it but he didn't "Snap". Now if we can just get him to swing like a MAN on a blackfish bite.

Put Up or.... WHAT???????????

[Life's A Beach]

Stelios and Dave Tats had to be taught how to work a microwave. 2:30 minutes is NOT the same as one minute.

Tats IS good a math as I quizzed him the rest of the day...."yo Tats..........1:30 had gone..........how long until it's hot?" "One minute LAB"

I coulda ran for 1,000 yards behind today's Offensive (no pun intended) Line.
Chris the Mate, JMurr, Stelios, MickRazz, Slow Scott/Scooter as the line with Boston Pete as my blocking tight end. If anyone want's to know "Where's the beef?" I found it!

Two full pulled pork sandwiches with coleslaw and a brisket sandwich with coleslaw MUST be washed down with ONLY a Diet Pepsi.

We had three father's to be on the trip: Mike BigFishTales aka Gottog who just shrugged when I tried to instill the fear of God into him about what he's gonna hafta deal with, Sean Clam Strings who also is having his first and is just jazzed about it and David D-Rod aka The Breeder who is having his (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ????) NEXT kids soon. The Breeder just walks into his house and his bride get preggers! LOL Overheard at the Diner (opps David was there too) was "you gotta go deeper if you want a son"! Oh yes he did

I'm sure I'll remember more and will add when I do. Other's will surely have stories I forgot.

For the record.........I was as quiet as a church mouse and a total gentleman today!! I don't lie, I don't have to!

Good time with good people/friends, great food and we caught some fish. Of course it coulda been better but I heard someone caught 8 keepers on a charter further south so..............................

Will have date for PUOSU 4 soon "Earlier LAB and let us use whites".

Special thanks to Kenny and Chris for a fun day. You guys run a great operation. Hope to sail with you soon and look to put together a trip in EARLY January if the weather cooperates.

[mickrazz]

Even though Lab thought I was in a foul mood I was having a blast. I just HATE it when a piece of my equiptment fails me. ESPECIALLY when I fix everyones reels and MY effin reel is acting up...

Joey Murr fixed me up though. He beat me in our side bet on who would catch the bigger fish...me or him. Good job big boy. You also got thru the day without getting your nose banged up.

It was fun fishing again with the guys I only see once a year.

Al...please....learn to tie some knots and rigs....please?? From now on when I see a picture of you after a day on the Monger, heres whats gonna go thru my mind...sheesh...and that guy can't even tie his own stuff.. You're to nice of a guy for me to be thinking stuff like that about you.

A very big thanks to TOM for the food and dragging his ass out while being sick to deliver it. Feel better Tom.

Labby, thanks for setting up the trip. Its REALLY hard putting up with you all effin day.
