Strange catch at Seabird
Submitted by sea-kem on Tue, 2009-12-01 07:23
My strange catch was at seabird last year, from the beach landing a baby Cobia and releasing. Spun me and my buddy out. I'm a regular up there and will post more of my exploits from boat and beach.

No unfortunately, it took some convincing some of the old timers up there, but I'm 100% positive.

quick flight for sam o burne
quick flight for sam o burne or the old quick flight? i was working for the oburnes on all torque. had peter dougo for a bit as skipper then changed to josh....also worked on sierna del mare for dougo and blu wave owned it working out of two rocks
so it looks something like this
08/09 josh obyrne = all torque(seabird)
07/08 peter dougo/ josh obyrne = all torque(seabird)
06/07 peter dougo = sierina del mare = (two rocks)
05/06 wayne andrich= (traveled from green head to dunsbrough )

nah i dont think dougo ever
nah i dont think dougo ever had vagabond, last year bonza still owned it. yea dougo is always a laugh. heads to bed at 8pm every night and got excited over everything... apot that came up with 5 keepers and he was stoked.. but he quit fishing mid season to go to the mines. wayne andrich never talked to me, if he wanted to tell me something he would go through the other deckies for some reason. i think narvana is off 2 rocks now.
what a boat sirena del mare a few years ago. no life raft,had wood rot around the deck and always sliding and hitting shins on the back hatch. heard it was for sale for $80,000 last year.

Sirena Del Mere i think it
Sirena Del Mere i think it needs to burnt to the water line i hated the boat so much to work on ,you would get wet fron the cabin door out ,bonza still has vagabond he got over 6ton last week for the 4days fishing the crays are still there and big time ,,the narvana has gone over east stue garate took to over in the off season ,so no more fishing for dougo it happen to the best of us (joking,joking)
