51 More Weeks Until Mini Season 2011
Congratulations on another successful hunt... unfortunately the Ghost Lobster escaped again but we found plenty of his friends, so I'm not gonna complain. Here are some observations from this year's trip:
1. There seemed to be less boats out this year then previous years, the lobsters better send BP a Christmas card.
2. When your captain is wearing a pink and black Speedo, the FWC lets the Coast Guard handle the boarding of that vessel.
3. For all the threats of oil and tropical storms leading up to this season, the water could not have been more calm and clear.
4. Don't believe the hype, Keystone Light is not as smooth as Keith Stone, and it may make your feet swell... just a heads up.
5. People who drive vans for a living are sketchy, period.
6. Having random sketchy people around can and will make for an interesting night.
7. One piece of drift wood was the difference between wanting to go dolphin fishing again next year and never wanting to go fishing ever again in my life.
8. Pirate flags are not underrated.
As to comment No. 7. I couldn't agree more. I would also add No. 9 - knifewrench's are awesome, but are also terribly dangerous.
