Hello folks, and good morning to you. I am sorry for the lack of reports over the last couple of days. We had a computer problem, but i think we are back on line for now. Anyhow, just to get you up to speed. We departed on uur annual 18-18 trip on the morning of the 13th. We picked up a great load of bait and we are headed for points south. As we ride down things have been pretty uneventful and except for lots of wind, there is very little to report. We hope to start fishing on the 17th, and depending on what we see, we will either press on or stay in the area. We had seminars on the way down and we are all ready for battle. Hopefully, we will have a good report for you. Billy and crew of the R.P.
