I am almost surely cancelled out on those days. I work weekends but I have commitments on both of those weekends anyway so a vacation day won't help. I think that I still have 3 weeks of vacation left but those weekends are booked. I know 9-11 is locked up as I usually run my honor guard on a 21 gun salute for the 9-11 memorial.

How far do you run out of Freeport? I except it may be less than out of Galveston and sure closer than Sabine Pass. I know when I fished out of Aransas Pass oh so many years ago, it was a lot shorter run to the deep water. I've never fished out of Freeport.

As far as distance out, I normally run between 60 and 90 miles offshore.  It really depends on seas, weather, and what we are trying to catch.  Oh, and how much fuel we have....LOL  That's a pretty important part right there. 

If we don't get takers on these dates we can always pick another.  I take shift workers all the time so i am not apposed at all to buring a day of vacation to run a week-day trip.  Usually fewer boats out there anyway during the week.

SETX Team that goes the farthest in the playoffs, 5 of you get a free fishing trip.  First 5 to send me a PM after qualifying.

Care to include Brenham in setx for this offer?  :o

Absolutely.  Aks myself, ride 12 hours in a boat with a gloating PNG fan or someone who makes Blue Bell Ice cream.  EASY pick right there.....  ;D ;D ;D

OK folks, shooting for October 2nd and 3rd trips. If interested let me know.

estimated cost for this one?
[/quote]

If you're from west orange it's....... Just kidding.  4 people is $200 each and 5 people is $160 each.  We just split the cost fo the trip (all inclusive). Depending on fuel prices, this is what it's been running.

Apple Springs’ game against King’s Academy was stopped just minutes before halftime on Thursday night and was not resumed. According to Apple Springs head coach and superintendent Cody Moree, the game was stopped due to safety concerns for the players. “We came out on fire, and we had a takeaway on their first series,” Moree said. “We scored every time we had the ball and built a big enough lead that we thought we might get a 45-point lead before half (which would have ended the game).   “A couple of our players were targeted on some plays that didn’t get called. We had a play where we hit a guy late on a tackle and we got flagged for it. “Players came off their bench and several of their fans came over the fence and there were verbal threats made toward our players.”   At that point, I went to the head official and told him that we were taking our kids off the field for their safety and the game was over.” Moree and his team went into the fieldhouse at that point and remained there until the stadium was cleared. “We didn’t forfeit anything,” Moree said. “I’m proud of our students and how we played and we handled ourselves in that situation.” Apple Springs will host Leverett’s Chapel on Friday.

    • no, no you can not get a better idea when district starts.  they can go 0-4 predistrict and run the house in district because its so weak.  
    • anytime there is an article on ktz football saying its on the rise, you can bet the house theyre going to lose the next game!
