Not since Thursday. Our trips will be less now that my son went back to work teaching school. The fall’s winds also seem to have arrive early. N winds make it difficult to get out.
Weather permitting we’re going with another guy from the dock next weekend. He’s going to teach us how to daytime deep drop for swordfish. They say it’s easy once you learn the tricks. Been wanting to learn how for a few years now.
Tried a few times on our own with no luck.

Snagged quite a few 1-3lb bass on topwater today. It's not ocean fishing but I like it!

Fish are fish. Nothing like a large mouth gulping it down and taking a run. If they break the surface all the better. If they jump out of the water and spit your lure it’s even better.
I almost caught I frigging huge large mouth as a kid. He jumped out of the water and sent my rattle trap right back at me.
I spent a week in Panama fishing for a Black Marlin in my quest to catch all nine of the world’s billfish. Took me 8 hours on 120 weight gear to catch an estimated 800 lb fish. We were using ten lb bonito for bait. On the flight home to Arkansas, my wife and I were discussing where we were going crappie fishing when we got home.

I was in a partners bass tournament in the finger lake of New York. Hooked a nice smallmouth that jumped and threw the hook. If I caught we one the tournament but I lost it. That's why its fishing not catching. But I will say I wish I knew more about quality hooks and how to sharpen them back then. Now if it doesn't stick in my nail it's dull.
