Hello Everyone!

Excuse the lack of posts this last month - I should have been updating while on the road, but I was busy having too much fun.

I just got back from:

1. Florida (all over the state)

2. Vegas, Vegas, Vegas!!!

3. Lahaina, Maui

Here's some quick pics... and report from Lahaina, Maui with the Start Me Up Sportfishing crew on Memorial Day 2009 to come!

Houston Airport - you know that any airport with a Bass Pro Shops in it has got some fishy folks around... sad to say however there was nothing but ugly camo and red orange sweatshirts and old copies of Saltwater Sportsman in that shithole.

Awesome Guy Harvey mural at the Fort Lauderdale Airport. We flew into an airport 3hrs from our Orlando destination, so we kinda lived it up there for a night in Hallandale, then drove through and hung in South Beach with the rich bitches and pimps for a day. Great fish house in Hallandale called Flanigan's Seafood Bar & Grill... place is all decked out with tons of trophy saltwater fish as well as lures, rods, and terminal tackle throughout... Mahi chicken-fingers were delish, as were the ribs!

The richest of the rich in Miami/South Beach... Peep those yachts, right on the damn water - that's their front porch, and the first thing they see every morning when they go out to get the paper. Jesus make me rich - make me reeeyich!

Some of my people. The poor folk. Fishin' for the night catch off the side of the freeway on a bridge (still in Miami). Lots doing this. What the hell happens if boats are passing? Could you imagine getting smacked in the face by squid on a hook? Hey, a dude's gotta eat!

Some of the Mahi we caught with the Start Me Up Sportfishing crew aboard the "Ladat" on Memorial Day 2009!

Stay tuned people... Good stuff to come, along with a full fishing report and tons more pics. Going to go out this weekend as well, and then on a 2+ day June 30th or July 1st as well... Albies are on decks of many sportboats as we speak, as are the yellows - predominantly biting at San Clemente Islands, in the 30-40lb range - I gotta get me some, I got'sta turn it on!

With much love,

Sol
