A good way to kill time
Submitted by deepwater on Sat, 2011-06-18 19:08
With the boat broken a good way to kill boredom is to head down the gulf to catch some bait. A bonus was the 6 crabs we got which were walking around the sides of the net. The smallest was 136mm and the biggest was 178mm.

make sure you tuck some away for your next days off Jeffo, and make sure the freezer doesn't get turned off again.
