Default You can thank me later ,,,hiho

First off I want to say sorry for making the wind machine work over time this July,,,,its all my fault .

I have not made "tuna fishing plans " and posted my intensions without mother nature messing me up ,it happens every time.
So, for the past few years Ive just shown up ,,no forewarning at all, and it seemed to work ,,,Noone else involved except a for salty dogs ...
I would pick a small weather window and sneak up on it ,,quietly like you sneak on a " wrabbit " in my Elmer Fudd voice.

Not this year ,, I made plans with friends ,plans with salty dogs over on the coast , I POSTED those intentions....

So it blows,and blows and blows.
I kept everything on hold ,,ready at a moments notice,,,,, one week /two weeks/three weeks//// nada

Finally after three weeks of everyone sitting ,,, we were all getting in bad moods ,, fighting between us on ifish etc,,, I made a decision to make it right ..

I owe it to the dogs to get them fishing I thought, they have all helped me so much I owe them one...

So ,,, I sent out word to all the people I had lined up to fish with Baitboy/Reel Creel/Net fun/pilar //etc.. that I would NOTcome over to the coast for at least a week.

I even wrote a PM to Pilar discribing how the instant I pronounce my intensions to wait a week ,, the wind would stop and the fish would suddenly show at the 61 spot .....


To all of you who are out to play this weekend ,,,,, from the bottom of my heart ,,,, Your Welcome ... and good fishin

who wishes he lived on the coast June thru Sept .

Chris, Dont go thinking you get all the credit, it was just this week I also reviewed my budget and determined that I would not be doing anymore ocean fishing this year. Im sure that had something to do with the favorable weather!
