It was just one of many typical SW Florida days:
1) Fancy orange fishing gloves $17.00
2) Grouper & shark bait $12.50
3) A tornado waterspout racing for your boat trying to kill you $PRICELESS
We went far out in the Gulf Saturday early am, when it got light the fishing exploded. A fish on every drop, hit the Red Grouper limit (one keeper per angler) in 30 minutes. Shark, Snapper, tons of Grouper, everything was awesome until I looked up & saw a tornado waterspout. We yanked the hook & ran for shore, we made it with just a little excitement.
Got back to the house, changed my underwear, filleted the Groupers & had a great dinner that fed a bunch of people.
It was all worth it!
We were 15 miles sw of Sanibel Is. I was with Steve & Jimmy. Jimmy is always with me when I have near death fishing experiences....interesting.....he does have a vowel at the end of his last name...
