@ the sex positions edit.
Anyhow, we're probably going to go sometime late July early August. We're thinking a weeekend trip (Saturday) but probably a night trip to avoid the large crowds on the boats this time of year. Do you guys prefer night or day?
Also, if we could get about 10 people together to go, I think we'd be able to get a group discount.
How many are in for sure?

I've been twice. Once was great, and once was freaking awful. It depends on the choppiness of the water. The second time I went, the boat rocked the entire time, and about 30 people on the boat got sea sick. It makes it the longest trip of your life. When it's great, it's really great. You don't need to know anything about fishing to do it. The deckhands will help you with everything you need.
In the Gulf, you have to go out pretty far to get into deep enough water. It's like an hour ride out. I'm going in August in Hawaii, which is supposedly like a ten minute trek, just because it drops off - being that it's a huge island.
Get ready to fight fish, though. I had one that pulled me around the boat, and fought it for about twenty minutes. It drains you.
You'll have a good time.
I don't think even Dramamine would help me on this one... :vomit :vomit :vomit :vomit
I've been wanting to go fishing for a long time.. I tried to talk my hubby into it last time we went to SPI, but no luck. I don't eat fish but I'd be willing to pass my catch to somebody.
Does hubby know you feel this way?

Of course he does! :p
And he approves???
I know if my wife thought I'd be passing her off to anybody I'd be gutted and filleted...![]()
Bueller? Bueller?
Pencil me in lightly. The closer to my locale, the better my chances of making it.
Corpus is out of the question; Port Arthur is good; Louisiana is even better.
I'm on the verge of winning the half-way pot in my NASCAR fantasy league ($435 - I'm 1st place out of 87 $25 players), so I may have a few extra bones to spend.
Manny, if you don't have you heart set on deep sea then you can find some really really kick as guides that will take you to some great spots around the bay area. Fishing closer in, you'll mainly catch red fish and trout which are abundant, plus the limit is like 10 per person.
Also you're less likely to encounter sea-sickness from anyone , deep sea REALLY rocks you, closer to shore is much more tolerable for those who arent used to it.
No thanks, done the bay fishing thing. I caught more Reds in the boat channel at Rockport than in Copano Bay. I'm really looking forward to a shot at some larger fish. Thanks though.
Cool! It's probably going to be either Port A or Galveston. Those are the places I've been checking out.
So wtf? When are we going?
which boat channel i am goin to rockport on monday
I went two weeks ago with G&S Marine out of Port A. 5' swells! Makes for a rough trip even with scopolamine. If you suffer from motion sickness don't even bother with dramamine.
G&S Marine takes out a 48' boat and it runs around $1500.00 for 12 people (that's the max) for 8 hours.
