The breeze was back for today's offshore fishing trip by the partyboat Capt. John, along with a few squalls. With the twin hulls of the "Superboat" parting the Gulf swells, Capt. Tony Langston had a series of rock formations about 50 miles offshore targeted for today's fishing.

Shortly after arriving, the 60 fishermen began working their squid or sardine baits through the entire 110' water column. Their efforts had them reeling up this catch:
?Ģ 5 kingfish
?Ģ 1 Warsaw grouper
?Ģ 1 stingray
?Ģ 30 Atlantic spadefish
?Ģ 9 lane snapper
?Ģ 30 vermilion snapper
?Ģ 120 red snapper to 8 lbs., a red snapper limit for the 60 fishermen

Reserve your space at the rail on the fish-catching, quiet and smooth-riding Capt. John - give the office a ring at 409-762-8808 or 713-223-4853. Some new fishing friends for you to meet will be aboard, too.
