Default Who went boating this weekend?

Went both days, 1st day with my youngest daughter and a friend of hers.. 2nd, day, wind was BLOWING, 15-20 MPH, gusts higher, just went by myself, and the Talon just ate it up on the Banana River!

It was a little cold this weekend, but the two before that, we've been lucky with mid 70s, which is insane for Kansas in February. Took our little Glastron out.

Wow, that looks like our first boat, must be mid to late 70's.

I did, treasure coast Florida, 82* river was glass, Intracoastal was a light chop and stayed inshore. Sad I can't go out for another month due to other obligations. Going go get some work done on her in the interim, drive showers, oil temp. Gauges, rotted cup holder panels rebuilt, drive oil change and forward trailer bunks replaced.

I was - and went in both Oceans, Pacific and Atlantic in one week! Nice little boating, fishing vacation.

Guatemala -> Hollywood/Miami FLA

Where are all the fish in Florida / Miami???? There seem to be none left. Any fishing tips from the locals? further offshore / Gulf Stream??? (There are plenty in Guatemala!)

I was tempted here in Michigan but the boat is still winterized. Shot this video of the local lake:
