FOUCHON overnighter 7-11 09
 

One of the best trips of my life... We went 156 miles out and never found Blue water=( but we found some fish...

ling like crab!!

My arm is killing me from that big cobia..

I foul hooked her on the side *** off a sight cast.. I fought her for 30 minutes she was 55-65.. My personal best..

I have never had a ling trip like that yesterday. There would be 3-5 big ling coming out of grass patches grubbing our baits.. FUN FUN FUN had a blast!

nice fish guys ive heard the same green water all the way into green canyon !! yall were sight fishing those cobia??

Yea every patch of grass they would come charging out after out tripletail gear. I landed a 30lb on 12lb test curado!!

nice!!! guy

HELL Yea...Nice catch boys!!!!! Phone didn't ring?

We gave them all away we didnt have enough room in the ice chest!!:*****:

Hey did Johnny lose something?

Did you guys eat the billfish or mount it?

Nice catch Mike. Jon's pic is priceless!!! You guys look like ya'll had a good time.

She was let go but floated up after..:cry:

Yea Donny, it was a good trip.. Still ruffed up, but it was worth it.

Those pictures of Frick passed out on the deck, and Johny are hilarious..
We got out 120 miles and found out we forgot the food when the sun was setting- lived off of beers and chip for days out there..

You and Jerad going to JB rigs on Thursday?

Dont forget about snickers

are you snickers now?

No it was all the food we had.. a loaf of bread no meat, chips, and a big bag of snickers. plus raw tuna

yummy, sushi !!!

I ate the heart while it was still beating.. amazing!!!!

sorry but that ain't happening. maybe after its been cooked. i just don't think i could do it

yall really hooked up with that Marlin or no..? Nice Lemon Fish though...we tried to find them for eva yesterday..must of hit 20 diff rigs looking for em after we finished our Aj and snappers...never seen the first one..i dunno what the prob was..

we were catchin em in big patches off grass.. Naw i wish we got that marlin.. Those were some friends of my buddys we stopped by on the way in.

You would b surprised with the taste.. amazing texture

Pluss u get really hungry ull eat anything..

I think i would've stuck with the beer sammich myself...

I ate beer sandwich's the whole time, funny thing is no one complained about the issue the whole time. Left at 1:00pm Friday and did not get back till 7:00pm Saturday. No one seems to care when the fishing is soo good. We were fishing for Tuna Friday night out of starvation.. ha ha

It is so nice going offshore out of Fouchon I am really starting to enjoy it. Everyone is extremelly nice and people are always having a good time. Ready for the tarpon rodeo down there. That is a blast, and we are going to give em' hell this year!

dock shots
 

was that the new place that chris moran bought on the corner of la1 and fourchon rd. that the dock shots were taken at?

Im fishing the tarpon rodeo in Empire this year.... bringing my boat and giving them hell this year !!!!

Yea it is Mr Moran's Marina, nice down there..good food, nice people, mix drinks!

I know I said it before but Fouchon/Grand Isle is extremely nice for offshore fishing.
The facility's match the quality of deep sea fishing. I absolutely love it down there!

Im ready to go back!!!
