Wow, Matthew really popped up out of no where yesterday. I was planning on going 40 miles out of Freeport this Sunday. The current forecast shows Matthew going on-shore in LA Sunday morning. I guess I will check the bouy data in the morning, maybe things will settle down by then. If not, I will go to plan B and fish for bull reds near the Freeport jetties.
We got sidelined too. Just was going to be a bit rough. Hope you had some fun with the bull reds. That was my backup as well, but others had something to say about that!
You did not miss much. The forecast was right on this time. It was rough. Stayed by the jetties and only had one good fish on before the line parted.
The Coast Gaurd was making Pan Pan calls all morning until 3:00pm when I left. Evidently a boat capsized 3 miles South of the Bolivar channel. They were looking for a "hispanic male only wearing shorts". It didn't sound good.....
OH well, hopefully we can get out his weekend. Let me know next time you come down, maybe we can each other on some fish out there.
