VACATION, ALL I EVER WANTED...

The boys (L-R, Boneman, Noel, Priest, Jason and Stocks) on the stern of Reality Bites/T-Bag after a great day of fishing. We headed out at 5 a.m. to troll an area 20 miles northeast of Wildwood known as the East Lump. As you can see, we had an extremely productive day. We caught the 20 lb Bluefin Tuna at 7:15 a.m., and later in the day en route to the five fathom bouy our captain put us right into an enormous school of Mahi off a long line pot. We were eating the tuna on the dock as Mark filleted it, and it was unreal. The seas were rough that day, and best of all, no one got sick!
It was a bloodbath bringing the mahi on board, as you can see by my clothes. A close up of our catch shows that it was time for the grill!

I'm staying with my friends Dan and Mel down here in Wildwood, and here I am with their daughter Elizabeth on the deck of their house. She is such a good girl, and getting bigger and more beautiful every day!
