Fish Tank Thursday
 

Hit the Tank today with Tropics, MVP, Henry, Gary, and Bill, Capt Tom was driving. Ride out was in the soup as was most of the day but the temp was very mild and nobody complained but all of the prevailing conditions made it next to impossible to stay parked over the good real estate and unfortunately our numbers reflected it. Capt Tom went above and beyond and it's a testimony to his ability that under the lousy conditions we all still managed to go home with a bag of fillets.
P.S. First stop of the day, I didn't even get my crab wet and Capt Tom steps up to me and gives me SHIT! ( Specialized High Intensity Training ) taught me his secret rig and proper hooking of the crustacean and I'm a better man for it, Thank You Sir! I am in your debt.

Re: Fish Tank Thursday
 

The rig worked, from what you said, you're usually high hook with bergals, but not Thursday. Good fishing with you.

Re: Fish Tank Thursday
 

Hell yea it worked! Capt Tom is the Yoda of black fishing. Seriously, you have to give credit where credit is due. He could have just stood there and allowed me to fish the way I normally do ( and continue my one man quest to decimate the bergall population) but he took the time to help me out and he never once made me feel like a hack. . .he's a good man.

Re: Fish Tank Thursday
 

And it was very good fishing with you and the others as well!

Re: Fish Tank Thursday
 

And all this time I thought it was operator error ??? Gotta be the shoes right ?

Now the bergall population will be ever increasing - hope they do not decimate and takeover the dog fish population now

That must be one patient and nice captain - Way to go Captain Tom ( I know Glen )

Tee Hee MEE G - :cool:
