"Breezy & Bumpy" were in the offshore neighborhood today. They weren't there so much at the start,but when they did show, they brought along cousin "Really Bumpy". Unfortunately, the forecast isn't a good one for the next couple of days. The good part is that we all know about forecasts, they aren't always correct. Hopefully, that's the case for the near future. With conditions being what they were today, the sleek twin hull catamaran design of the Capt. John dampened those wave motions to a great extent.

Leaving Galveston's Pier 19 and shortly thereafter entering the Gulf with 75 fishermen aboard, a southerly run offshore began. When the run of approximately fifty miles was complete, Capt. Tony Langston had the fishermen working their cut squid or sardine baits over wrecks and rocks in the 110 ft. deep water. Their efforts and the baits used had this catch biting and joining them on deck:
?Ģ 150 red snapper to 10 lbs., a boat limit
?Ģ 12 mangrove snapper to 8 lbs.
?Ģ 20 vermilion snapper
?Ģ 2 rainbow runner
?Ģ 3 kingfish
?Ģ 2 dorado (mahi-mahi) of 18-20 lbs. each
?Ģ 1 ling of 30 lbs.
?Ģ 50 Atlantic spadefish (tiger snapper)

Despite the unwelcome return appearance of "Bumpy & Breezy" and cousin, "Really Bumpy", another of those multi-species catches managed to end up in the fish boxes.
