You'll look much prettier in high heels now. I have a bunion on my right foot that doesn't bother me. With any luck I won't have to go under the knife for it.

It was in the 70's the day my son and I arrived. We went and scoped out the boat ramp(I could be wrong but the ramp looked like the same ramp in the movie Bait Shop) and had dinner and crashed at the hotel. Next morning it was 28* and freezing rain. As I stated before, we caught pickerel but did lose a few bass. Following day was more pickerel and confrontations with the airboat tours because we were fishing around the gator nests, I guess. Next day we launched in Kissimmee and blew out the impeller from sucking up sand. Packed up and left. Trailer tire blew out on the way home with no spare. It was one of "those" trips. I have a 5 year old grandson with an attention span of zero. Would you recommend one party boat over another?

I saw Boston at Alpine Valley in the mid 80's on their comeback tour. The girl I took to the show, I had known for a short time. We had fooled around a little here and there. She gave it up after the show. I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn at Alpine the summer before he returned and crashed into the side of the hill.

CHIRP isn't going to matter in a kayak unless you're fishing in 1000fow. Learning how to read sonar before you buy it should be your main goal. PLENTY of instructional videos on youtube. What you need to learn is "history" on the graph. Using 2D or DI, the rightest part of your monitor is the most recent ping(history). On SI, the top of the monitor is the most recent ping. Everything else is history. A sonar will only show a current image as something passes thru the beam. That means the vessel is moving and it shows what the vessel has passed over the beam or, the vessel is stationary and it shows and object that has passed thru the beam. When using 2D the return is "harder" the closer it is to the center of the cone and "weaker" the further it is from the center of the cone. In the example that @MN Fisher posted. The 75* cone at 455kHz. Lets say you have red set up as a hard return and yellow as a weak return. The red return is going to be something that passed directly under the boat. Any return that comes back as orange to yellow will be a return towards the side of the cone (vessel) or as an "outside" return. DI doesn't really differentiate between a hard and soft return and just shows what's going on under the boat. In the pic that @txchaser posted, in real time, you're already fishing in 75fow. The shelf, ledge and trees are history.

Thank you @softwateronly

I want to do the party boat with my grandson. He's really too young to spend all day on a bass boat and if we're not catching fish he gets bored pretty easily. I could probably leave the women at Port Canaveral for the 6 hour duration of the party boat trip. I'm sure they could find something to do. Plus, I figure, if we catch anything, we could head to one of the seafood joints and they could prepare our catch for dinner. I fished Toho once maybe 10 or 12 years ago in February during a severe cold front. All we caught were pickerel.

Ditching the family should go over well with them

Heading to Orlando next week. How's the fishing this time of year? Would I be wasting my money taking the family on a party fishing boat?

Thank you @garroyo130

Got a bottle of Eagle Rare a coupe years ago as a gift. Not really impressed.

My grandmother would make SOS with Thanksgiving leftovers. Turkey, mushroom soup and peas over toast

Or Leslie Nielsen.
