Memories Sept. 30th Post Pictures
Well its about time - no wonder I'm one of the "leaders" in our church. It takes me forever to get around to doing something. That was a joke BTW - come on guys - don't leave me "hanging."
Looking over the front of Tim's boat as we headed out past the jetty. To the right are older Cruise Ship terminals. To the left is the Air Force side of the Kennedy Space Center as well as a submarine basin. 
"A 3 hour tour, a 3 hour tour, boom!!" Sorry, I couldn't help but think of Gilligan's Island when I saw this picture. From left to right - Hurricane Chuck, Tim, and Bret.
Now we're past the end of the jetty and actually fishing facing the AF side of the beach.
We tried to anchor as close as we could to the jetty's without becoming "jetty bait" by the wave action that wanted to push us into the jetty. You can see another group of lucky guys fishing a few yards in front of us.
I tried to catch the mullet jumping by our boat as they were being chased by a pod of dolphins. The little discolored "shimmers" is the closet I got.
Any way, my Sept. 30th post, "Memories," was about the day that yours truly, Hurricane Chuck, Tim, and Bret went out in the channel of Port Canaveral looking for some red fish. We found some (of the fish type) blues, some "big ones" that stole our bait, and a show put on by copious schools of mullet (not of the hair type) and the dolphins that were looking to dine on them. I took some pictures and as promised some one and a half months ago, here they are:
Enjoy.
Tim's at the end of the boat ramp leading out into the channel.
Tim at the wheel with Bret holding the boat steady. The ship in the background is "gambling / casino" ship that is out of business. Too many winners I guess.
A huge and very top heavy looking container ship as we headed out into the channel.

I'm glad you waited to post the pictures. I wouldn't have appreciated these while it was still hot. Of course, it's pretty warm for November but these pictures remind me to hold on... summer's comin'!
Judy - Thanks. Your WV reminded me of the old "Road Runner" cartoon when they would freezeframe with coyote and insert his "latin" name.
Cool pics.
I love deep sea fishing.
I remmeber going out in the ocean about 6 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. We would catch stingrays and cut them up and use them as bait. We ended up with 3 ice chests full of fish. What a feast we had. Again thanks for sharing this with us all. I hope you have a great weekend! :-)

Puck - Maybe that's why we didn't catch any Reds? :)
Preacherman - I've been on the end of cutting stingrays up for bait. We're headed up for South Carolina to see the Gators play SC.
