Fishers of Fish

Another Score

The fishing was great today, although we didn’t make enough of an effort to take advantage. We hit two schools of dolphin in about 2200 feet of water. The first bunch was small. The second were bigger. We weren’t really prepared to deal with a school, so we only boated a few. Val was the only guest, so I didn’t consider it a serious outing.

Here’s the end result:

06 20 09 val and dolphin

Got home from sweating on a hot boat…to find that the air conditioning was on the fritz. Man, that hurt. I was really looking forward to hitting that cold air when I walked in, but it wasn’t there. Got a guy coming to look at it. I’m hoping it’s the capacitor on the compressor again. Not sure why they only go out on Saturday.

Other than that, phenomenal day.

    Sorry to hear about your AC. We have experienced the same thing. I think the capacitors have clocks in them and are programmed to fail only during the hottest weekends. I agree with Ed.

    Relax Ed?

    Heck…I’d sleep there and fondle my machine tools.

    Steve, I’m so jealous. If you would, please tell us how you prepare those delicious sea kittens for consumption. Any and all recipes (along with photos) would be greatly appreciated.

    Catching fish in 2200 feet of water? – For a flatlander from Indiana that’s hard to for me to fathom.

    Yeah, Grump. Do we troll for walleye at 20, 22, or 24 feet?
