Here is the VB look

That looks really nice...That's where I'd go!!

I wonder if anyones on it today. I'd bet its productive.

I don't know, but it's blowing 26 knots with 6' seas with a 4 second period which means it's whitecappy! However, nothing that 55' foot of fiberglass under your ass won't cure.

or a 28.6 foot Southport!!

Hopefully it will lay down tonight for Owen and crew heading out tomorrow.

Think the eddy will still be here for the weekend?? Say yes!!

It will be here just for you Charlie!!

Seriuosly, Looking at the previous sst's it is moving into the Cigar area. It may not be as warm though, but there should be a break. A lot will depend on the forecasted winds for Friday...

FRI
NW WINDS INCREASING TO 25 TO 35 KT EARLY...DIMINISHING TO
15 TO 25 KT LATE. SEAS BUILDING TO 7 TO 11 FT...EXCEPT TO 16 FT
E OF 1000 FMS EARLY...THEN SUBSIDING TO 5 TO 8 FT...EXCEPT TO 14
FT E OF 1000 FMS LATE...HIGHEST FAR E.

Charlie,

After doing a trick Mike taught me...I put the last several sst's into PowerPoint and then ran as a slide show.(too much time on my hands today) It first moved into the Cigar and over the last 2 shots, it took a jog south and out. So with that West wind component it may be pushed out.

Wish I could go buddy - I really want to, but work is killing me these days. I'm hoping things settle down a little so I can take some weekdays off for Striper fishing.

Bummer

Work sucks

I see that the water has pushed out to the 100 fathom curve....

Good luck!

Julie

We are all slaves to the Weather. Open letter to my Boss...I promise to work hard on weekends with crappy weather, if you let me take off during the week when the weather is good. It that so hard a concept?
Tight lines.

The 11:30 and the 10:50 GMT shots look like the warm water is spinning into the Cigar...its feeding it!!!

Oh yea!!!!

I hope Owen and crew get into them today. Also hope it's still there this weekend/

Im going to try to get my list of things done so I can finally take The BD out there.That would be a sweet 1st trip Im sure.

The guys I know that went out today were limited out before noon. That's with a crew of 6 people.....Couldn't get a full spread out without getting covered up....Bob

Where were they at?

We saw no one all day, only 2 non military boats, noone fishing.

Owen and crew??

WE have names!!!

Oblivion and a couple of other boats started around the 200 line out in about 100 fathoms...they worked the 200 - 250 early....Bob

Sorry Eric - you have a name and I know it well - except when my alzhimers kicks in.

Do I smell a mutiny ...Owen, you might want to get control of your crew (any good captain would put his crew in their place and rule with an IRON FIST)

--Brett

I have no problems with the Captain, hell he put us on some big YFT.

Charlie you should have been apart of the "crew"

That must have been the guys leaving early from the east. I thought to call them on the radio.

Eric

Mutiny - never - not with Eric or Brian, they like to fish!!!

We didn't go quite far enough east to get into the big bite appearently, we will know better next time.

We still got meat!!!

You done Great Owen.....Congrats .....Bob

I learn more every trip.

ANY yellowfin caught out of VB in December is a rare treat. Pretty work guys!

Bob or anyone else, what does that water look like today (12-08-06)??

Its still their. Will it hold with a west blow? and most of the tuna caught this year have been in 100-200 fathoms. Going EAST of the cigar is a good idea.

Cmac

I haven't had a good Sat Shot since early yesterday....I'm hoping it's still there but will no for sure tomorrow....

200 - 250 line 100 - deeper fathoms was the hot spot on Wednesday....we'll see where it's at on Sunday...I'm underway from Owls Creek at 0400 Sunday Morning....FISH ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....Bob

See you guys out there!! WOO-HOO!!!! TOONA TOONA TOONA !!!

Guess you wanted to ride on the big boat huh with Dave Huh...

well...we'll see you out there in our little ole Center Console.....Bob

You didn't ask! I can't help it if i was drafted by Team billable ours. You know where my allegiance lies. To the dread Captn Fatbeard ! ARRRRRRRR

Jeff,

Don't bust Bob too hard. We talked about who was going to ask you to go and we drew straws...



I lost!!!

Damn !! That makes a pirate feel mighty low ! Hey...Whatever ...I'm still going !! YEAAAA

Jeff, You cut the best part of that picture out.

sorry !

We'll be heading out Sunday in search of the water east of the cigar departing Rudee at 4:30 am. I'll be hunting stripers on Saturday.

Nice Bull Capt Fatbeard

Where'd it go?!?!?! Latest shot as of writing...

IT's moved south to the 000's

Looks like it may still be a fairly short run at it out of OI

the tuna hole or the point -either one looks fishy - has anyone heard?

Looks like VB might be done.

Hell no it ain't done.....Prime time tomorrow morning !>>!>.

a big water heater in the spread might help

Hmmmm.. Hope somebody turns on the bath tub tomorrow!
