sounds like a good trip, ridge. is that the rig with the 115 4S merc? i'm stll loving mine, got 195 hours so far.
couldn't get appalachicola oysters this year, ended up with a bag from chesepeake bay. they were good, but not the same.

Yeah, same boat. Loving the 4 -stroke BUT that big lower might have me drafting a bit more WOT. 24 hours and due for the oil change I keep putting it off... Not using any boat much. That is a lot of hours, you obviously live the life. Good for you brother.
With the oysters: Was it all the fresh water? Red tide? Fallout from oil spills? what? We didn't have many oysters this year either.. Blue crabs are plentiful as sand-gnats on the other hand...

combination of all of the above, lotta rain, red tide & the oil spill. not so much the oil, but oystermen got such big checks, their still livin off of them. nobody want to work.
oysters are going for $10 a dozen locally, crazy times we live in. i paid $60 for a 50lb bag that had 18 dozen in it. i had heard they were getting $95 a bag, so i was surprised to get these. our blue crabs have been really bad this year, had one week they all showed up and was good , after that, don't know where thet went. we walk them up, so kinda limited there. but bad fishin is better that no fishin
