Ft. Pierce and the Boat

HIM: Last weekend was great. I met up with Chris, Jason, Jon, and David for a little trip south to Ft. Pierce. Chris chartered a fishing boat and we spent the night on it. The next day, we awoke to the sound of the Captain (Jay) revving up the engine and taking us out to sea. After 15 minutes of trying to sleep, I crawled out of bed to meet with Jason and the Captain up top. Once we were at a depth of about 300 feet, we each caught some fish. The fish weren't biting, so our return trip was laden with only 6 or 7 fishies of the tuna, dolphin (mahi mahi), and barracuda variety. The First Mate (Ron) filleted a few for us to have for dinner and the Captain fried them up. With full bellies, reddened skin, and droopy eyelids, we drove home quite contented that evening.
