South Haven 4/18 Shakedown

[Paulywood]

Man was it bumpy out there today. It really wasn't much fun. We set up outside the pierheads and headed south. Water was really dirty inside so we worked out to 40'. Tried to turn back north but it was pretty rough. Worked from 15'-45' back north. Took one rip on a Reefrunner on a 3 color. Finally gave up and headed in about 10 am. Solid 3-5's with a few 6's thrown in for fun. Boat ran good and nobody chummed so it wasn't a total loss. Looking forward to a more productive second trip.

Sounds like our story from yesterday in a 16' boat. Not fun in the least bit. Better luck next time.

Maybe someone should have chummed. Nice work anyway Nick. Good shakedown out of the way.

Yesterday was very rough. We were in South Haven also, and my stomach couldn't handle the big waves. Yuck!

Better luck next time.

"chummed" I will be adding that to my boat vocabulary.

Nick, At least you had a good shakedown cruise. How's the truck running?

Its a good thing no one chummed. I took someone fishing a couple of years ago, and they chummed down both sides of my boat.

Just lean them a lil farther over. It's always a plus to have a chummer. Man that turns the Kings on.

I had one onboard 2 years ago. We cut the trip short, and took him ashore. I don't like staying out when someone is sick. Some times that can be catchy. Ya know the three Ss. Sound, Sight and Smell.
