Pensacola Trip

Recommended Posts

My buddy and I took his boat to my Dad's place outside Pensacola in back October for a quick Red Snapper run. 3 more came down from ATL and we fished 6 guys. We caught a nice mess of B-liners, Scamp, Red Snapper (including a 21.96 pounder), trigger, king (bottom fishing). We got broke off hard 2 times at a Red Snapper Hole and 30 Secs later a 8-9FT Tiger Shark comes swimming by 10 from the boat. Really neat to see this fish just cruising by.

The 5500 really makes towing stress free.

We put a spread out a few times and trolled, without any luck. Really wanted the 2 guys that had not done any offshore stuff to get a Wahoo or Dolphin.

What we came for though

Came in pass racing daylight and got pulled over by the Marine Patrol. Donzi with Optimaxes shadowed us for 3-4 miles. We were running ~59 Mph and he was slowly falling back. We saw him and continued until he hit his blue lights. Pulled all of our fish out and checked all safety gear. They were very friendly but took forever. They had a cooler full of fish they had confiscated throughout the day. They give this to the homeless shelter.
