Off Shore fishing trip

Blue water it just can't get prettier than this.

Me with my King Mackerel.

This was a great trip. We went out of La Fouchon where there was a King Mackerel fishing tournament going on. We started are trip just in the marsh where my buddy kyle caught a nice Red Fish. Then we ended up fishing blue water about 36 miles out. We caught our limit of Red Snapper, which is two per person, in about one hour. After that we began trolling the rip, which is where the currents come together and make a line in the gulf. Most fishermen will tell you this is the best fishing you can get into. While trolling we caught two nice King Mackerel and almost had a huge bull dolphin. Weather threatened to cut the trip short but we managed to catch all we needed before the rain came. Thanks Captain Wade for the great trip!
