Set out on the second charter for Fournier Trucking today with Brent, Mario and Sergio great weather calm seas and good company. Bright sunshine, 5-10 NE, water 62 degrees

Was going to hit the Ocean today, but a little voice told me differant. Set up at Old Orchard around 7:40 or so, almost slack tide.

Started chunking, after about 15 minutes wham a Chopper, then quite for awhile, then wham it began almost non-stop action for the next 4 hrs, Blues to 16 lbs and Bass to 25 lbs..........the boys were wondering when it was going to stop, sore arms and backs..........

Slowed down around 12:00, moved about 350 yds to a little deeper water and it was off to the races again, rods going off, people jumping around the boat, lots of laughs......we left them biting at 1:30.............. Noone and I mean noone was around us all day.

Wore out the fillet knife today my brothers
