3 kings

Three kings are in a row, caught these baby's 20+miles off shore out of Carolina Beach,NC 3 weeks ago. also caught Grouper, snapper, and Shark yummy shark fillets are great when soaked in lemon juice for awhile. had a great time except for the motion of the ocean was in overdrive. 3-7 foot seas at times was a bit tough for a small 6 man charter at time 35 miles offshore but the rewards were great and i as per usual did not get sick although two others were blowing chunks, one Guy for the entire 18 hour trip. I love the streams and rivers of the North Carolina mountains but the sea is a great place to visit a couple of times per year to harvest its bounty and replenish the freezer for the fish fry/ cook outs that enable alot of beer and BS fishing stories to be told by all. OK most of the time (98.6%) catch and release but every now and again it is good to eat those we catch for well the taste is far better than that of a farm raised mechanically packaged pre-made meal at outback. anyway here are three of the Kings i caught for you to see and enjoy as i have already enjoyed them steaked and grilled.
