Pompano Beach trip
 

Got down to Pompano last week, greeted by East 30kts seas 8-10ft.
We did some pond bass fishing until the wind could die off. Wish we had pond bass like that in Jersey!
My brothers 29 Aquasport had a broken valve, dinged up piston, leaking exhaust manifold. We changed a head and still had a knock. Then the other motor locked up. 17 year old Marine Power 5.7s with 2000 hrs.
He finally threw in the towel on that boat. Only gets down there a couple times a year.
Seas calmed down to 3-6ft, east at 20kts so we put on foul weather jackets and got out on a 25cc Competition. Frigate birds pointed us to several Big dolphin that were chewing. We had a double of a 15 lb cow and 30 pound bull (I lost it at the boat) on Saturday right as the sun set. Got another BIG cow(pictured) on Sunday under a frigate. Lots of bonita, a skipjack and a blackfin. Got mobbed by 7 pound bluefish on Sunday. Tried daytime swording, no luck.

amazing! travel 1300 miles to get mobbed by bluefish. they love them down there. if they only knew. yeah, they've saved many a slow day but try to get a sharkbait down when they're around. bastards!
