Herb's Deep Drop on the Reward 1-23-16

Just kidding, maybe not. Wait we could be going deep but we fish on top. I and others will fish all the way to the bottom you don't have to. If a lot of bait fishermen then he might anchor shallow to try for muttons and what ever else bites.
The Reward Won will go out all day day again with Captain Wayne on Saturday the 23rd. If you want a chance at trolling for some Miami Wahoo, that might be the week to start trying. Jared got cut off last week so it could have been it.
The live bait is included. Some times we fish for it and sometimes he buys it. All depends on how many will go out on the trip. No I do not get a discount for doing this I just want to go out and fish.
Call now and put your name down. They will call you back next week for the deposit, if there are enough people.
Reward fishing fleet
(305) 372-9470
Sails out of Bayside Marina Downtown Miami. Leaving at 6:30 am and back at the dock at 4:30 pm.
The parking at the Parking Garage is only $5 all day because we are early when we get there. Not at the parking lot, that will be very expensive.

Yes Raul, we will fish with live bait just like last time. I am not coordinating the trip, just letting you guys know so that most of the people would be Boatless forum people. It's cooler that way.
Well Jongsoo, looks like the reward is doing these trips regularly so that can definitively be done.

Everyday we get closer.
Were wrapping up all the little stuff no. Probably start them up this week.
We are doing rudder work too. That won't be done till next week so no rides yet.
Doing awesome work, I'm very happy so far.

No, we have no idea... But we can guess... maybe like taking away fishing rods and reels from fisherman while other catching many fishes out there...lol
When I was a commercial seining fisherman in Kodiak IS in 1994 summer, we had skiff broken down in middle of fishing... so we had to go back to town...and waited 3 weeks just to waiting for parts from Seattle... And then Capt Mike's dad passed away so another two weeks off.... it was agonizing waiting experience... others were catching fish and we were not (I was doing sport fishing with locals catching salmon and halibut all day just to kill the time...lol)... one crew(skipper) left but I and another stayed with Mike... when we back to game, out total catch were at least 50K LB less salmons than other highliners... we fished 20 hours a day to break even with our expenses but only caught 100 fish in average per set... everyone got tired and cursed Exxon..., Mike said we ventured out to a place called "red river" where most time, fishing was closed... we went there and waited 4 hours in the line of boats to make one set... That one set I remember for my life...I yelled" Mike, f2cking net is sinking... we are losing the F^&^*&^ fish... what the F@ck is wrong this time!!! %&%*" (I learned my curse from AK fisherman... Cursing worse means more important...nothing more nothing less)... Mike smiled and told me "Hey Jongsoo, we got too many fish..." Skiff pulled the boat a little and the anchor dropped... I don't recall how long the net was out... I think it was easily about the size of 3-4 times basketball court... we were all singing or humming some kinds of songs while scooping the fish all night...I think we caught 15K LB sockeye salmons from that one set, which was enough to cover all the expense... next day, they closed the season a few weeks for red river place...lol

Crazy story, Blue.
I worked in port of Dutch Harbor, Alaska in 1995. I was the best green horn but my work ethic was too much for them to keep up with me. So, I got kicked off every boat in Alaska. All the capts who kicked me off said i was the best of the best, but just too much. I still remember them, Phil (RIP), Keith, Johnathan, Sig , Andy..

Although I've never gotten ANY kind of crabs... I hear the one's from the Miami area are particular bitey and hard to get rid off...
Not sure where this thread went wrong lol... but I figured I'd add my own bit. Seriously though, I worked on a couple commercial boats in my younger years and although the pay SUCKED, I do miss being out there very much! Shark, grouper, yellowtail then crawfish (spiny lobster), stone crab. Finally did a couple trips out of Gloucester for swordfish and tuna which was my favorite.

Spent a month fishing for swords up at the Flemish Cap. You haven't seen ocean like the insanity like what you always find at the Cap. Wind to 125 mph and waves higher than the Great Wall of China. We ended the month with eighty seven tons of trout and got top dollar back at the dock. Captain Mike told me I was the best greenhorn in all of Alaska that year. I knew it was true when they asked me to Captain the Saga next season if the current coke head implodes but I had to pass because I agreed to climb Everest.
