Chandeleur Islands

[panhandlehunter]

Well our trip has been canceled. If anyone has a trip booked with the VI this year, you may need to find something else to do that week.

Luckily we were able to pull off a couple of nights bow fishing and some inshore stuff around venice. At this point I just hoping to get our deposit back.

What happened?

What happened?

Long story, but I guess Bobby sold his share to robby? Anyways, the boat hasn't been to the islands this year due to needing some repairs, and Robbys communication was nonexistent. We got lucky and figured this out 3 weeks before our trip, but according to the guy that runs the diversion, people have been showing up to Biloxi all year with no boat to fish on. Shtty situation, but we are going to re book with a different charter for next year, and I have no problems putting the VI on blast for the next few years if he ever gets the boat fixed.

That sucks! Glad yall found some other stuff to do.

Headed to Walmart to get crappie hooks, corks, stink bait and treble hooks. I'm assuming we can buy minnows on the dock?

Looking forward to it.

2 years ago we were loaded on the VI and the generator broke and we had to drive home. Never left port. I learned then those crew guys swap from one boat to another often and there isn't a lot of loyalty between them.

One guy who was on another boat talked 9lbs of trash about the VI yet was the cook on it my next trip.

If memory serves me right Robby is the son of a man who owned both the 3 and the 6. His other brother runs the 3 and robby leased the boat cause he couldn't stay out of jail.

Either way that's bad bidness

This is saltwater. Make sure you get the fishing rod that's as big around as a broom handle, the 5 gallon bucket sized spinning reel, and the biggest hooks you can find.

On our trip 2 years ago we had a great trip. As we were loading up to head in the generator went out and one engine died. We limped back in. The next group ended up getting turned down because the boat was not working. Our crew was great 2 young kids and a old grumpy cook that was dam good. Reports after that all stank as they changed crew. I think the kids name was Austin. If he’s a captain down there find the boat he is working in he was great

It's the 3 day charter skiff license we need, correct?

Spent about 10 summers there growing up. I've tried to stay away but the siren call is too strong.

Austin is a good dude. I have a message out to him now to see where he ended up
