Hahaha, it takes a whoooolllleeee lot more than that to get rid of me!
I've been puttin' around on my float tube trying to find a bass or a trout. I was home this weekend for mother's day and my bday. And last weekend it was just a friend that's a girl, no girlfriend. I'm free of those chains for right now.
Brought my boots back up with me though! So I'll only need the Crocs at the dock.
Sadly found out that the airlines will be charging for a second checked bag, so I may not be bringing any fish back from my long range trip... WHICH IS ONLY A MONTH AWAY, AND HOLY CRAP I ALREADY CAN'T SLEEP!!!
Anyway, that's the news on big A, thanks for asking! Hope ya'll are doing just as great!

What does it cost for an extra bag? Can you mail your gear back and check the fish box? Hoghunter has done this before and said it seemed to work best. Just a thought. Bring fish back. I want to taste what that little crap fish...what do you call it? Yellowtail?...taste like. I heard it kind of taste like chicken. Me, I like salmon much mo betta.  But would be willing to give Yellowtail a try. If you don't bring some back then you can't talk shit. Just remember that....
Oh and also....if I see you wearing crocs on the doc and I have had my nightly alottment of JD.....BEWARE

I'll try to work it out. I think its only $50 more for a second bag up to 50#. So, an extra $1.00 per pound isn't bad considering it costs me about $300 a pound for these fish. I don't know that you're ready to try yellowtail though...
I brought another reel for you to use to cast bait. Its the old version of the Daiwa Sealine (the SL30SH). It doesn't have as good freespool as the new "X" models, but has a light graphite spool and can easily handle 30# line. Its perfect for 25# and will work with 30#.
I can even bring back some jigs I don't care much for and you can definitely crank surface iron with this reel. It would pair okay with one of those rods you had, I think. You can try the Torium as well, of course, but this will give you a feel for the Sealines and we can both cast jigs to boiling fish.

You better catch all the Yellowtail and whatever else is down there that you can so i can try that chit. I'll pay for an extra box if that is your concern. What is your daily limit? Where exactly will you guys be fishing? So what does Yellowtail taste like and how do you prepare it? Would you say it is like halibut or what would you compare it to?
I want to get into this long range stuff so show me the way. I don't know a whole lot about casting 2 oz. iron but am willing to learn. I just know that you can hit my neighbors house over 60 yards away with a 2 oz lead. It's not like we surface cast to salmon or halibut so I will need to learn/train to get the most of an SD LR trip.
