Fur all who wants to come! Prince has a buddy Great
Dane in Key West anna his 2 foot is having trouble
filling his parti boat becuz all did Covid stuff 2foots
are having.

He's gotted a full day fishing trip fur us all! Wez can
board tomorrow or da next day.

Fishies? Catching our own fishies? I din't know dat was
possible! I am dere!

[Fred get Milton to help him get a fishing pole ready and a
hook in the water]

Fishing continues as they catch and eat all they want. The
crew is just the Captain and 1 mate but they handle all the
help needed.

Fred T Catt arrives and is immediately tossed a stray live
shrimp. Prince and Keelie grin then go back to trying to
gaff out of the water, the 7lb snapper Luko caught.

The first Mate helps Fred with trolling lures then sets back as
he takes one of the chairs. He sets it to auto then enjoys the
warm sun. Soon a mix of purrs and snores erupt from that
general direction.

Luko yells! Lookie what's on Fred's line!

Fred jumps and sees the line reeling out and the mate jumps over
and starts doing mystical things. The boat almost stops as a
large fish fights the lure. Using some sort of winch, they rise
the pole then reel line in really fast as they lower it then do
it again. Each time, the fishie gets closer to the boat. Luko
almost absentmindedly drops his baited hook in the water off to
the side as he watches the action.

Prince grabs a gaff hook as Keelie grabs another one. The Mate
thinks they have a Tuna!

To be continued....
Prince sits back exausted after helping Fred land a 25lb Tuna. Luko
meantime, missed some of the action as his line caught. It wasn't
as spectacular but it was fun! He proudly sits by his 9" Lane
Snapper, licking his paws.

Then he sets a line out. It takes a bit but it triggers and he
starts bringing it in. He's caught a very nice Sea Bass! He quickly
re-baits his hook and keeps on as Luko and Fred work on the other
side and catch more Snappers.

The responsible boat owners remind them the limit is 10 per boat at
this season for each, but grin and help out. They carefully measure
and release 2 that were under sized (and not damaged so would be
ok).

As the sun starts towards the horizon, they pack the fish in ice
and head back. Fred has 2 Sea Bass, the First mate has 3 and Prince
has 4.

Fred has 4 Snappers and 1 Tuna and Luko has 5 Snappers and managed
to snag 4 prawn sized shrimp with the net.

Heading back, the first mate takes the boat as the Captain sees if
he can catch something for the boat to sell, with the trolling
lure. That won't be a Sea Bass or Snapper as it's too fast. More
like a Marlin or Tuna. As it snagged, he brings in a very nice 25lb
Bluefish.

P2nya is waiting on the shore. She has arranged rocks inna circle,
and stacked driftwood inside.
HiHi Guyz, Whatcha catched? Huu kin light mine fire?

P2nya AKA Sweetee

Prince bounces out of the boat as they dock hauling fishies as the 1st
mate sets up a table and starts to clean them all.

The Captain finishes tying the boat up, lights the fire, then takes the
Bluefish to the sales pier and happily pockets the cash.

Once done, he sets up a metal rack to grill some of the fish over
P2nya's fire. then seals the rest up for them which Fred tucks into
various backpacks with provided ice bags.
