It’s that time, not that I want to but I have to say goodbye. I remember when I was 12 on the old dial up aol I seen a Robert Bergman hydro bubbler kit and told myself I would have one when I got older. Now I’m 39 and wanted to tell everyone who helped me achieve one of my teenage dreams thank you and I appreciate your help and knowledge. I just feel like something is off right now and I have to go with my gut instinct, chop them down now. I hope to be back sometime, but for now it’s over.
Spent many trips in the gulf shrimping. 90 foot mahogony gulf boat. Headed many many boxes of shrimp. Smoked a lot of weed in the wheelhouse. Running a nozzle on that steel boat you got there? We were limited in net size being wood and no nozzle for power to pull bigger setups.
1 thing we had. We could outrun every metal girl to the areas. We get in first drag with 4 35 foot nets. She also rode like a cork…sigh. even with the birds deployed she rolled a bit. Rough sits on fishing grounds during the day in weather. Ice in the hold. No refrigeration. 30 days a run.
