Old Salt Jeff caught his LIMIT on this first drop. He had 5 until I fished next to him, clearly my auro taking him off his game. After I left he continued to put on a clinic. Most got a lot of shorts so Kenny decided to move.

We moved down to the reef and fish 3 drops on tanks. These tanks have been there for years and don't stand out like they did when first placed/dumped. Makes is harder to "find the edge" than when fishing a rockpile or wreck. Couple that with further burying from Sandy and ........... BUT LouD dropped on the 2nd tank spot and hit a ~7# on the head.

We made a move north to our last drop and some fish came up. A slow pick but we all heard a call of "net" and Softie pulled a nice fat female. To MY eye it was bigger than Louie's but I'm old and half blind.

Tried weighing them at sea but a steady roll (yes it was) made it impossible. Even tried the boat's Pool Scale but it was as level as could be.

Back at the dock LouD's AND Shrimpman Steve's fish weighed in 6# 12oz so we walked over to Spikes. On their digital pan scale LouD was 6.76# and Steve's was 6.71# 5/100th of a pound made Louie the FINAL PUOSU Champ!

thank you everyone for your contributions of food, drink, ice, utensils. we ate all day long and had a great time. It was nice getting to know some new fellow fishermen.

Things I learned (or heard) today:

(while looking at the tv in the cabin) "Does this thing get porn?"

"Yo LAB, your crock pot of pulled pork just did a back flip off the counter and landed right side up"

You may not see him doing it but Blackfish Bobby catches fish!

Saltwater1999/Jeff is a PULLER, enough said

1313 Mockingbird Lane

Shrimpie takes a lot of abuse but takes it like a man

Scooter aka Scott has lost his mojo

I've enjoyed all 5 PUOSUs but am glad they're done

I DO look forward to the "2013 Inaugural LAB LIMIT CHALLENGE"

first off, congrats to lou! His fish was longer, mine was fatter, but in the end his was heavier! When my fish hit the deck late in the day LAB was panicking! I heard him mumbling in the corner "anyone but shrimp":D. He said something about his worst nightmare come true or something. Well LAB it was close, but don't worry, I lost fare and square!

The pulled pork was great, don't know how it survived the suicidal leap off the microwave! Many laughs all day long, I had a blast. Good food, good friends, (old and new). Great fishing with everyone!

LAB, thanks for all the work in putting the trips together.

Congrats Lou. Amazing how close your and Shrimpies fish were. A tough day of fishing for sure, except for Saltlife who put on a clinic. I think he had his limit on the first 2 drops.

Great job as usual by our fearlesss leader LAB setting this up. I know it takes a lot time and effort coordinating these trips and it is much appreciated. A great 5 year run Mike, thanks.
