Don and Joe,
That makes three of us, these are my first. We had a real anomaly around here the past month or so. Normally they are not around these parts but apparently the super cold weeks we had in FL brought them down in great concentrations to the mouth of the Loxahatchee river where they were catching them. I got word from my fellow fishermen in the 'hood and just had to get out and try our luck. Caught them on bonito belly strips (a favorite) I had in my freezer from last year, others caught them on frozen sardines.
Typically you use live shrimp around the intracoastal markers.

LOL...
I'm pretty sure the ones they were trying to catch are easier to get with a few beers in 'em.Caught them on bonito belly strips (a favorite) I had in my freezer from last year, others caught them on frozen sardines.
I know I never saw one in HS that went for bonito belly strips or frozen sardines (and especially not live shrimp)..

round 11.....here we go...
(a lone spotlight shines upon the stage....)
(the sound of a 1000 xs1100's comes up to a roar in the background....)
(he steps out of the darkness makes his announcement....)
ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE!?!?!?!?!?.....
hey there folks....long time no talk....have been watching but wanted to get a new round of inductees before i started naming names.....quite the bunch this time.....now you know i don't pull punches about the truthfulness of the pictures presented, but this, by far, is the most notorious, diabolical, underhanded, devious, bottom of the barrel batch of criminals i have ever seen......
lets start with the man known only as the "dirty sanchez"!....
.....running from the law....
(wanna see him try this manuver on his XJ!)
...one of his many aliases.......
(big time producer of rap videos!)
this dude is wanted for connections in the disappearance of "Jimmy Hoffa".....
(notice the very nice field stone wall behind him and the new asphalt drive way he is parked on.....)
now we come upon a double agent for both the KGB and the CIA.....
(international man of mystery....)
(whats he got in the back pack?!?!?!)
(guess who tested the new bomb vest?!)
(throttle to the ship.......or button to launch the nukes?!)
front man for the mob and his goon......
(zach does not need to ride!).......
....also he's another gun smuggler......
(notice the bullet-proof mail box in the background!)
(35....cold....not even close yet!)
and now we present a father and son team involved in gun smuggling....the money man.....
(yea....he "owns" the boat=he pays the gas bill!)
and the "brains" behind the operation.....
(notice the "power" stance and the "gun-like" grip on the poor fish!....)
....and a final note.....if it smells like tuna.....just step away!!!!...(no offense cobia!)....ride hard, ride safe.....ross

OK.... now that I now have a decent PC and can upload some pics...thought I'd risk posting one of me... hope it doesn't break your monitors...
(but after seeing some of the others 'in the 11 family' I don't think it'll be a problem... LOL) So here goes!
