41 fish outing, you got to be pleased with that. We go fishing not catching, but dang, that is a great trip.

Thanks for sharing

Way to go! That fog reminds me of our first outing around Grissom! It is a bit uncomfortable to say the least.

Hey Jerdon,
When I finally kicked to where the warm water became cooler in the harbor, I was able to also locate the fish there as well.
The fish seemed to want to bite in the cooler water which was very fortunate for me. Thumbs Up

Hey Jeff,

I stuck it close to the buoy line alignment to be safe.
It was creepy indeed!

Hey Enrique,

Dang, I forgot all about Isle Grissom being foggy on our first get together, you’re right it was and yes it was just about like that except for the mega tankers and tugboats jockeying around in the fog! I could hear them in the near distance but I could not see them! Shocked

Nice outing Dan and great report. That had to be a bit uncomfortable. It worked out and you had one hack of a day.

Thanx for chiming in Toby,
It was definitely eerie out there, alone in the fog at times.
It was sorta like having one of my senses removed and I was depending on my sense of hearing and not my sense of vision to protect me.
The fog definitely handicapped me a little bit but it didn’t completely knock me out of the race. lol
