This is what we where after .Coral Trout . a boat like this would have 4 tenders [ 14 foot ] 40 Hp outboards and use hand lines single hook , we
would be out at sea till we filled the boat ,could take up to 8 weeks

That sounds like fun..not sure about the 8 weeks though hehe. So the big boat would have a freezer hold?

Yes mate , big freezer , we would fillet the fish at the end of the day and pack the fillets in cartons . Now they all do live fish , 2 weeks is a long trip for them , all tenders have Depth sounders , GPS . radio , had none of that when I did it . 25 years ago . If you took the gear away from them , most would not be able to catch a fish . or find there way back to the main boat .

- fine-ass '22 harvest!
Time to get busy with the ladiezz J-Ray! ...nice line up as usual, PQuack is one of several variations I gather... Last year Stone sent Space Quack, Grape Quack (semi-auto), Green Quack, but I think GQ is the only auto, SQ is early generation (F1?).... Is the PQ a true duckfoot version? Those are a hoot! Congrad's on the new boat-
She's a beaut'! .... Amazing, the old gal at 85! ...I hope you can get her soon mate, you must be going nutters -

I started out with none of that stuff too...it was quite an adventure. I had a little open boat with a lawnmower engine :smoking:Yes mate , big freezer , we would fillet the fish at the end of the day and pack the fillets in cartons .

Got all the gear now saves a lot of labor physically and mentally. I had to get GPS when I saw the beginners fishing circles around me
Not much live-fish delivery here (too far fom market) except some shellfish

Hey Waira buddy
Congrad's on the new boat-
Yea, you know,
I wouldn't be bothered by the pandemic if I wasnt slavering over my new boat, dammit here I am safe and sound but wanting sooo bad to go down to that cesspool to get at her.
That old gal she's still holding together but I just can't keep her up anymore ( sort of like her crew) She's a rare beauty thoughThe Pquack seems to be 'partially' duckfooted...from the pics I've seen some leaves look normal and some look webbed. I hope she's able to finish in time.

Hey @Jraven ! Pquacks are auto, but take 100 days according to Stone. Should be ready to chop early September. I’m considering giving a couple a soak myself.Hey Waira buddy

Oh I see, well it's good I'm starting them now then anyway if they are longer term. Everything takes a little longer here. Thanks for the info.
Nice to see a fellow northern grower!
I grew some Hybrids From Hell Leb27S a couple of years ago at 59 degrees north here in Norway. It did well, but didn't quite finish cause of a rainy september and got some moldspots. But it was a nice smoke for socializing and grabbing some beers.
Good luck with your grow and I'll tag along your journal
