Dave , thanks again for the invite for the grand slam Porgy fest , let me know when the new Porgy site/forum is up and running. Fluking sucked just a couple of keepers and shorts (the water still seemed dirty), so we had to switch over to Porgies (The Zagorski's stood in protest) .I actually never fished for them or ate em before so when I went home last night, made fish tacos out of them and they were pretty good. BTW it was just drop and reel fishing there were so many. We also boated a couple of triggers and puffer fish which were very cool.
But while Porgy fishing Captain Jelly says you can fish for Toggies here too, then some of us went for it. It was nice and different to fish for them in the warmer weather. I was lucky and caught a few and went 3 for 6 on keepers ORLL and just used Greenies( it was just a scratch bite).
The highlight of my day was when Capt. Jelly dropped his pole in the drink and then he proclaims that he didnt like that rod anyway. Luckily we were fishing shallow and I had just reeled up so I drop my line down and sure as Shyte I hook his pole but never will this happen again ,I had a blackfish rig on with a slider and both hooks , hook the last/top guide in the eye with both hooks -
- and someone else had it too and we reel it up .I got it and I quote " I am very F@#$ing Proud of yah " never again will those words be spoken to me from Captain Jelly ever again .
I also didnt get banned / fired once yesterday, I met somebody who drives Capt. Jelly crazier than me . Soembody's brother who owns a fishing website that ends in ski that will remane nameless -
PS – we couldn’t leave until Dave caught a Trigger , we were screaming Uncle , No Mas but Dave stood his ground Hell to the No , Thankfully he caught it within a couple of minutes of his proclamation and we were off
Thanks to Capt. Jelly and crew John and Miami Mike for being awesome and filleting those porgies
Great trip as always with a great cast of characters tons of fun and lots of laffs
Be Well Be Safe and Fish On
