If ya need a 4th boat next year let me know. Looks like a great time was had by all.
COME ON DOWN BABY!!! Actually, everyone on the site is invited!!!

The house rent really wasn't bad at all - after taxes and fees the 7 of us stayed there 4 nights and 5 days for a whopping total of $72 per person!! Fuel was a different story - About 80 gallons burned through in the Yukon and 100 gallons burned through the Yamaha with about 230 - 240 miles covered on the water over the 3 fishing days. It set each of us back about $400 for the whole trip counting everything. It beats chartering any day!

Wow BR....looks like a great trip.

Unfortunatley I will never get to join you because my aniversary is May 26th, and usually falls on that weekend every year.

Hey....I was noticing that you are leaving a good serving of Mahi on the head of each of those babies....better filet them earlier in the beer fest next time.

Actually, that was the "tipsy" Grady White boat captain's doing.....you should have seen all the meat he left by not going on each side of the spine first. I just rolled with it. There was plenty of meat regardless. The fillets from ours the next day were much neater

And the beer - you guys would have been proud of me - I drank 1 beer on the boat day 1 on the ride in. I drank 2 on the boat on day 2 on the ride in and when we went flounder fishing I drank every beer in sight


Back at the house was a different story..............

I can't wait for you guys to see the videos. Got some mahi jumping on film. Also we have the whole footage from the big slob I reeled in for so long only to lose at the side of the boat. You can actually see the bull I lost with the cow swimming next to it in the vid. At least I've got that. I hooked him on the worst rod/reel combo we had. Its an old penn that I'm going to convert to a bottom fishing rig.

Sorry I could not get the boat down to head off shore with you guys. Sitting on the beach Saturday I was thinking how nice it would be if I was off shore catching a few fish. Good to see you had a good few days and let me know next time your planning a trip. My parent have a place in Nags Head and we could tow down in the morning.
