Painters Have Big Haul

I have been working on the L&H for fifteen years and as long as I have been there, Virgil and Answorth have handled the paint work. They are great guys, from the islands, and over the years have become very good friends. With the fishing being so good lately I figured it was time to show my appreciation for their hard work in keeping the L&H looking like new. They put a few of their friends together and met at the boat early one morning. These guys love to eat fish so our goal for the day was to send them home with alot. Our first stop was deep water snappers and in no time we had a good variety of the tasty fish. Next we were after almacos and they were biting as well. After we added a few of these to the fish box it was time to find something that really pulled hard for the guys. Wes and Greg dropped down big live baits as I positioned the L&H over one of the many wrecks off Key Biscayne. For the rest of the trip Virgil, Answorth and thier friends stayed very busy pulling up amberjacks to almost eighty pounds, big barracuda and even a tuna from the bottom. In only a few hours we had managed to put several hundred pounds of fish in the fishbox. It was a great day with alot of joking around, alot of smiles and most imprtantly ALOT of fish for our friends to take home! Thanks alot you guys for everything you do to keep the L&H looking like a brand new boat!
