Author Topic:   Best looking WHALER I have seen

Yesterday afternoon while fishing at Eagle Bluff (Cypress Island) along comes this beautiful 30-31 ft Whaler and I don't have a camera. This thing is about 10 ft wide and is supporting (4) FOUR 250 Mercury Verado engines. It sat perfect in the water. It was skipper by a guy in his early 40's, with wife and sibling aboard. I could not afford the fuel for this thing much less own it but it was truly a dream boat. I would suspect it would cost at least $250,000.

Did you catch anything?
I will be out today, running to the county dock in Obstruction Pass. Maybe the big Whaler will be out again and I always have my camera. John

Yes, I caught a 21# on Thursday and an 11# on Friday. My friend had 2 around 19# inside Obstruction, but that was 3 days of fishing. Definitely not as good as last years opener, but the are a few fish around.

Are you sure it was a Whaler?
Even the largest Whalers--the Conquest 345 and the Outrage 370 are outfited with 3 Verados.

I did not see the big Whaler on my outing yesterday. The fishing reports have been conflicting, really good and not as good as last year.

John you correct there, not as good. My buddy and his grandson fish Wed through Sunday in that area, they did manage to bring home 2-19's, 1-21 and 1 26#. They lost a couple due to chafed line and bad knots.
I will be back out maybe tomorrow and again on Thursday for sure.
