Ok bud I'm Fla. bound leaving tommorow night, driving thru the night. should be there late tuesday
I will give you a call from my cell when we get situated

[reelapeelin]

Batteries?...Franco, didja get that trollin' motor?...missed it if posted already...

[willy]

I don't know Rap but if it means anything he told me to bring swim fins :o something about the flats asked me if I was a good swimmer ;D

[reelapeelin]

Fins huh?...doesn't sound like Santi Claus brought his new TM yet....well I's hopin' the best...

Anyway, I KNOW ya'll gonna have a big time... ;)...

[willy]

how hard is it you think to push swim a 20' CC :-[

[reelapeelin]

Willy the degree of difficulty is gonna be directly related to the prevailing winds...and whether or not Franco gets in the water to help or stays in the boat to ''navigate''.... ;) ;D ;D ;D...

[willy]

LMFAO ;D

[willy]

Hey Rap just talked with Franco on his cell, he was catching and pulling in sheepshead while I'm talking with him, says he's going to leave a few for me ;) don't think he got the TM. Man I got to get me a Fla. place for the winters, when the hunting season is in deep frost head south and fish in 70-80 degree weather for a few months and then come back up for the spring runs. Thats the ticket man ;D

[Franco]

....um pardon my ignorance, but , whatsa a sheepshead?

A sheepshead is a little(not so little sometimes) piece of *culinary heaven, if you know the tricks to cleaning and cooking them. (they got a bone or 2) They usually live around rocks, pilings or anything else that holds oysters or barnacles, seem to prefer shallower water, 5-25 feet. They bite very very very softly.....I usually end up feeding them instead of catching them ;D

[phester]

it looks like what us northerners call a porgie [or scup] it almost has the same overall shape and fin arrangement...colors are different. Thanks Mirage2521

[reelapeelin]

"Heads" get much bigger than the scup you're talkin' about...and they have a mouthful of molars that resemble human teeth...one thing that makes 'em hard to HOOK.... :)...

Franco, wish I was ALREADY down there, Bro...you'd probably have a hard time runnin' me off!! :D...got some pretty hot irons in the fire; some are tryin' to bite me so gotta man the front lines just now...looks like Willy's on the road today...I'm SURE you guys are gonna have a LARGE TIME!!...sounds like you don't need a TM w/a catch like posted above... ;D 8)...
