Grn. Can. 782 REPORT
 

HI Guys!!

A little morning Report for you all.

Wind- East 8 knots
Seas-1-2'
Current- 1 knot w to e.

Really blue out here. Nice patches of grass coming thru.

The wind makes it alot cooler on this steel deck.

Still seeing occassional nice YF Tuna busting, but I'm working, not looking over the side so much.

Thanks

Gunner :help:

Hopefully it holds. We are trying to go this weekend. Forecast was at 0-2's but then bumped to 2-4's. Looks like its trending back downward to 0-2's hopefully.

Yesterday there was a newer Yellowfin and a newer Freeman Cat. out here at Ursa.
Both catching Tuna.

Ray, was it green?

Sent from my EVO

I'm goin Friday night..gonna fish all night try to be back at Venice marina for noon Saturday

Both were solid white.

I've had a bad experience at ursa

What kinda experience?

Hit some hellacious seas and got sick on my own boat. But I went back and totally redeemed myself.

Ah, not an Ursa expierence, a seasick expierence.
I thought you had issues with the platform or workers.

Can't fix seasick for you.

Haha yea. We trolled from mars to ursa. Nasty green water and rough seas. Somewhere between the two I lost my lunch. But then I ate some cold pickled okra and I was good

Your boats name is Top Dawg?

No. Wankatank

Never seen that one around Lake Charles.

I'm in westlake. 26' Grady. Prolly gonna end up sellin it.

If it is in good shape, I have a friend looking for a Grady White. Not sure if he bought one yet.
What year?

It's old. The boat is a '85 model motors are 98s

He just sold a 21 ft. cudy cabin. It was only like 4 years old.

Mine isn't a jewel but it gets the job done

Yup, he chumed it up good for us and we still didn't catch nuttin.

Both charter boats with Mexican Gulf Fishing Co. I bet. Could you see a name on the Freeman?

Could not see the name.
There is also a blue wrapped Freeman out here now and then too. That dude catches a lot of Tuna.

That blue wrapped Freeman if I'm not mistaken a capt named mike gray wit Cajun odysea runs that. I fished wit him a couple of years ago in his old glacier bay.

That dude earns his money in that blue boat. I see him catching more than most.

Something big is going on tonight. There are some nice sportfishers out tonight.
Everything from a 34 ft. Albermarle to a 60 something ft. Viking.
There was also a nice sized sportfisher with a big cockpit and an enclosed flybridge.
It looked custom built.
Must be a tournament. Water is nice, but a lil choppy.

Swolefest out of grandisle prefishing
And isle of Capri big game outta mississippi

Swolefest started at 12:01 am

Lots of boats out here.

Just called the Brutus TLP and they have had a bunch of boats around them for the past week too.

We were by you Sat afternoon Ray. Spent the night at Mars though. More life over there. Slow bite though!

I have been here working nights for the past week. One more week to go.
We saw one huge Marlin caught 2 evenings ago.
Just a few Tuna caught.
More caught drifting than trolling.

thats the only thing i miss about working offshore, all the fishing we used to do. i worked on the discoverer spirit (huge drill ship) and we would slam the yellow fin pretty often.

Drill ships are some of the best yellowfin and wahoo fishing in the world for some reason

Had to fly out to Auger last monday.
Dropped guys off at enchilada on the way out.
Huge grass mats every coupple miles from enchilada to auger.

2 local boats did well in that area this weekend. Bite was better outa here than it was in Venice.

Yep talked to a guy that did pretty good....

We have some big grass mats around Ursa all day.
Slow currents, no winds and waves.
