After several cancellations, the Begnauds were finally able to make their annual trip back to Venice. I think it was Mrs. Susan who said, “We’re coming, not matter what.” Well OK. It wasn’t flat calm, that’s for sure. The 2-4′ wind wave from the north helped disguise the giant 6-10′ swells that were coming out of the southeast, but that was only to the eye, because there were a few stomachs on board that were not fooled. After taking a swing at some near-shore tunas, we got this crew back inside and put them on some calmer water action. Wahoo, grouper, snapper, and redfish- not the 15 species these guys usually demand from me, but certainly enough food and stories to get them to come back again. Here’s Zack and Mrs. Inga with a nice mixed bag of fish.
