Capt.Gene · 08-16-2004, 04:31 PM

What we need good luck with is the weather. No fun at all in 8' seas!

Does the trip come with a complimentary kick in the nuts?

Gene - I just got back from a five day charter. Slayed 28 hogs over 20 inches and 7 grouper the smallest being 26lbs and if you add in the 38 lobster it was quite a trip......never mind these nay sayers, that trip is a smokin' good time

Spearchucker · 08-24-2004, 04:24 PM

Your legal limit on hogs (assuming their were two captains on board) was 10, regardless of what that crooked ass crew tells you. Your legal limit on lobster was 12.

I noticed that over half of Deepdvr's posts are aimed at salvaging the reputation of UG. No surprise on the massive fish kill post he put up.

I'm not posting anything to salvage anyone's reputation.......only my own personal opinion......bang for the buck, it's hard to beat.

Not really, I'll take the JRII with its lower price any day of the week...

No doubt about it, the JR is a nice ride, but it's a shorter trip on a smaller boat.
Whatever flips your switch.......

Spearchucker · 08-27-2004, 07:03 PM

It is shorter on the JR2 only because the JR2 is faster. Both boats offer two full days of diving. With one, you dive on a cattle boat and get treated like shit, on the other you get treated like a CUSTOMER and you shoot tons of fish.

Not hard to figure out.

To be clear...you got this many fish or was that all that was brought on the boat for the trip? 7 blacks over 26 is nice. What was the biggest? Just curious. Nice fish...any pics?
