SCORE............
Was just down at the Town Wharf tossing lures just to see.....................
As I was getting ready to leave one of the local fishing boats came in loaded with Black Drum.
I moseyed up & asked:
"Are you selling?"
"That's what I do for a living."
"How much?"
"$6 a pound."
Now that thar is a bargain. I've seen it over $15 a pound at the local fish store.
"I'll take a pound or two. Don't have much room in my freezer for more."
"Selling it by the fillet."
"How big are the fillets?"
He held one up.
"About 6 pounds."
It was a monster fillet.
"I'll take it."
"You've got to get a bigger freezer."
Yup.
"How often you going to have these?"
"Until the season ends."
"And you'll be selling out of that building over there?"
"Yup!"
"What else are you going to selling?"
"Depends on what's in season. I'll be putting it up on a sign in front of the building from now on."
"Shellfish as well?"
"Yup."
He said his average Drum today went 40 to 50 pounds. Of course he wouldn't disclose his fishing location.
I think we're going to become good buddies........................
Ended up selling half of the fillet to the Brit.
I have the feeling we're gonna be good friends.....................

I offered it - he refused to take it without paying.
He stays for free at my house for up to 6 months at a time. I also supply a good portion of the food while he's here.
I considered you my friend too at one point. Why constantly combative?
You want me off the site?
Just what got into you over the last year or so anyway?
