stupid wind. sorry about the unused bait. Maybe you kept for hooping or froze some for your next outing.

Thanks for the report.

Pays to be an early bird lately.

Thanks for the report. Was it too windy inside at Doho too?

was out there also but on a 22ft boat. Weather forecast did not call for that much wind! Sucked big time but did manage 2 good size Bonita early around 10 but wind picked up and it was over. I almost died last time I was out there in a paddle kayak as it took me over 2 hours to paddle back in against the wind. It was nice to be on a private boat lol!

Papa Dave, you need to upgrade the seal on the front hatch... I don't get a single drop in my pa17t... Go to home Depot buy a better gasket and marine glue the crap out of it ....I was out 5 miles with some nasty wind chop swells going over my bow.... A tub full of water is a big no no

That's what I went and bought the next day.
