Went to Perdido Bay today to break in my new boat and engine.  It was a little rough trying to keep the engine between 3000 - 4500 rpm like the manual said but did the best I could.  Here is a picture of the new boat.

After we finished breaking in the engine we fished for a little bit.  Here is the first fish caught from my new boat.

Of course it had to be a gaft top cat.  Cats is all we caught today.   Had a lot of fun.

Gaftops and better than hardheads.  At least you can eat Gaftops if you want.  And they fight better.

 Nice boat, add some lights to the front and have a flounder killing machine.

I 2nd that. Put you some light on the front of that bad boy. It'd make a nice flounder getter.

At least it wasn't a goose egg.  I predict many days on the water, and many, many nice keeper fish.  Remember, it's all about the odds;  The more you fish, the more you catch, the more you eat, the more you have to catch, the more you have to go fish.  What a life.  Enjoy your boat!.

Looks like that boat will fly with such a large motor. Nice boat and keep the posts coming. We're expecting good reports out of you!

Oh, I hear that if you lick the gafftop catfish slime it will give you hallucenations. Haven't tried it-Yet!!!! Anyone heard of this?
