Ok its that time again. I need to know what weekend would be good and how many people want to go? Im thinking May 15th or May 22nd Full price of the trip will be $240 to $300 per fisherperson for a 12 hour or full day trip. This will include fish cleaning and Tip. Yall let me know. I will need 6 deposits of $100 per person before I write it down in the book.

How many people can go?

Count me in, may have a buddy that wants in to.

If we only have 6 the price will be $300 the more people we get the cheaper it gets. 10 people will be $240, 15 people $200. No more than 15.

Make deposits payable to Tom Ard address 6205 yellowfin st. Orange Beach, Alabama 36561.

When I have 6 deposit checks in the trip is a go.

COUNT ME IN AGAIN!! My bud wants to go aswell along with some ladies. Let me know if its too many

PM SENT, also the 15th would be great for me

I GOT 6 FOR SURE ON MY END MAN!!

I've got 2, 3rd dropped out. 15th is good for us. Let us know if we are kosher Fairwater and I will send out some checks.


Bill

So we have 6 for sure, let me check what saturdays are still open. May 1st, 8th, 22, 29th is open. Let me know which is best for yall.

wELL i can only go on the 1St or 29th. The 1st would be best for me. What happened to the 15thlol. The 1st would be awesome cause i could diffenetly bring my brother who is fixing to leave for afganistan in may. It would mean alot to bring him. If he can, on the 1st that would make my group a total of 5. (3guys 2girls). Time catch another big azz Scamp Tom!!

Myself and a buddy at work are coming. 2 total. Lets do the 1st so we can send Buckman's brother off after having had a good time

sounds good we have 7 head right now on the 1st of may. I will write this down you may now send the deposits lets try to get 10 if we can. Its a real good number on that boat, and it will cost a little less. but we will roll with 7.

ICOT, thanks man. That means alot. The 1st it is!! i'll be sending mine in next week sometime. Ahh the joys of getting paid bi-weekly,lol

Check will bw in the mail monday for my group
total of 7. myself, jason,tyler, Katie, Alyssa,Mary, and Adrian will be the names if you need them.

CHECK IN THE MAIL FOR MY GROUP

My checks will be in the Mail Thursday.

awesome, so i think that puts at 9 folks on the boat. If that is the final count what will the difference be per person Tom? Icot, last year we brought a boston butt to put on the big green egg< it was nice!!! Any request for the grill man?

Boston sounds good to me What about drinks etc...? I can bring that stuff.

well, we got a big group> i would hate for you to bring all the drinks man. Noing my bro he will be on the budlight diet along with a few others,lol Myself, i will be sticking to gatorade and water. Boston butt it is and if the cooler get too full some fish,hahaha This is gonna be a good time!!

Hey Fairwter< did u get the deposit yet?

Yes, Yes I got 7 deposits so far from Buckman. Lets try to get at least 10. Talk it up I know we can drum up a few more. Oh yea RickyBobby got the JACKS LOCATED. I hate saying that eveytime I do it bites me in the ass.

9 peeps around $250 i guess lets wait and see the final tally of people.

I'll see if i can't come up with some more, what happened to robert d. HE CAME LAST YEAR, where is he hiding at?lol

Hey i got another person in my group if we need one. just either call or text me tom, thanks

dont under stand this your site shows 1000.00 for spring rate for 6 people and summer rate of 1750.00 for 6 people and the price you are quoting here is 3000.00 for the trip.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but you really need to work on your math.

On his website, his rate for a 12 hour trip is $2100 with six people. It clearly says that it is more for each additional person, $125 per head more. The rate you quote is for a 10 hour trip ($1750). They are taking a 12 hour trip, so based on the prices listed on his website it woul be $2100 for six people, or $2600 for ten people.

On this trip, he's saying that it's $300 per person for up to six people. That's $1800 for the trip (versus the $2100 listed on his website). With 10 people the, cost would be $240 a person, or $2400 for the trip. That is still less than the price on his website.

You might want to get a calculator out next time before you go trying to pick a fight.

it also includes the tip for deck hands who work their asses off, the cost of cleaning all the fish and there will be alot. Man, this trip with Fairwater is soooo fun you guys dont know. I go deep sea fishing several times a year. I've been out of Orange beach, daulphin island and even Venice,LA. Fairwater gives the most fun and laid back trip out off anybody i have ever used. They know their chit and its worth every penny if not more. Hope to see some of yall on board.

was not trying to pick a fight.just geting info.just was asking.

I've never had Fairwater crowd me on a public spot or bait hole, and never had him run on me while on a private spot. I also don't think he's ever zapped me. That makes him all right in my book. I can't say that about a lot of the charter boats in Orange Beach.

I just know i'm counting down the days till i get to hook in another Aj, man i can't wait

i got another 2 for sure in my group. so that should out us at 11 if that is cool with everybody. Tom there will be a check in the mail for the extra and they are paying in full if that helps. call me if you need to

ANOTHER CHECK IN THE MAIL MAN

I got the other check Buckman and thanks I think Ive got Robert D talked into coming also maybe with his son.

i got 9 in my group, plus icot with 2 and robertd with 2, The boat big enough for 13? I can make my girl to stay at home if needed?lol

Another check in the mail man

7 more days!!!!

Fairwater, you get my PM?

Yes I got your PM, I can take a credit card but would prefer cash when you get here. We have plenty of deposit money up for the trip, weather permiting its going to happen. So far its your 2 Robert D and his son maybe thats 4 and however many ole Buckman has like 9 i think thats 13.

Either way is good for me, what time and where we meeting next Saturday? I need a good 12hrs of boating / fishing

6:30 am at Zekes Marina slip number A5 which is on the far west side of he marina. Just go to the dock, walk 20 yards turn left go around the dock store and the boat will be down there on the left. We are going on the Fairwater II

Whats for lunch?

i thought we were eating that boston butt you were bringing along with every fish that is jus too small to keep!! lol Jus kiddin, maybe... My group is ready rain or snow we coming. We will have a total of 8 in our group. We lost one due to my buddy dumpin his ol lady, hahaha

I'm still in

If Buckman would empty his damn pm box, I would shoot him a message

ok ok ok, my pm box is clean. 3 more days!!!

Weather for the weekend looks brutal. Hope it turns around for ya'll.

MAN, dont talk that crap up. :rolleyes:

The weather is basically gonna stay the same from friday through tuesday. Hit and miss thunderstorms at 30% and strong south winds. It might be bouncy on the trip but i only get to do this once a year and fairwaterII is a big boat. My crew is up for it no matter what.

As long as fairwater is game, I am to LOL

3 MORE DAYS

Saturday...South winds 20 to 25 knots. Seas 6 to 8 feet. Bays and coastal waterways rough. Chance of showers and thunderstorms. Tides above normal.

Sorry if its anything like that its a NO GO, we need may need to find another Saturday guys. I have May 8th and 22nd still open.

Attempting to try mother nature and go when its too rough is never a good idea, the trip would be a disaster and you guys would bash me on here.

I will give it another day but its blowing like hell down here now and the weather reports are not looking good.

Let me know as soon you know, I need to cancel a house reservation. Its all good, I know weather always throws a monkey wrench into everything

Dang sounds like a hurricane coming our way this weekend. Here is the updated report.

Friday...South winds 15 to 20 knots becoming southeast in the late morning and afternoon. Seas 5 to 7 feet. Bays and coastal waterways choppy to rough. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Friday Night...Southeast winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 5 to 8 feet. Bays and coastal waterways choppy to rough. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Saturday...Southeast winds 15 to 20 knots becoming south around 20 knots after midnight. Seas 5 to 8 feet. Bays and coastal waterways choppy to rough. Chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Sunday...South winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 5 to 7 feet. Bays and coastal waterways choppy to rough. Slight chance of showers and thunderstorms.

I have May 8th, 22nd, June 5th, 19, 26. Lets see if we can talk with everyone and pic another date.

i fish offshore a good bit, for the ones that think they can man it out, and i can assure you that no one wants any part of this weather. big boat or not. hope ya'll get another date picked out and heck, if he has an open date, go ahead and wait till snapper season. i would imagine though he is booked up.

damn wind... It has taken an act of congress to get my crew of 9 lined up. I understand tom that the weather is too dangerous, it jus sucks a big one. I'll check with my crew about another date, but it wont be easy.

OK, if i could go on any of those dates it would be June 26th. I can do that date and another in my crew could as well. I'll try for more. Tom< i'll call you today cause some of that money I'm gonna have to give back to some folks

Ok its on again for June 26th, summer time and snapper season, should be an awsume trip. Who wants in?

I GOT 5 for my group. We gonna make this happen!!!

So is this trip on or what? I have a group of 3 and maybe 4 that might be interested...is it full? Is it cancelled? Or is it ON?

well fairwater has his boats cleaning up the oil ,so i dont think its gonna happen
