Hurricane Dolly Update

When WhoDaMan returned from work yesterday he was surprised to see Pike Electric Company trucks in the parking lot. They had driven non-stop from North Carolina to Victoria and were waiting for the storm to break before heading to the valley to help restore power.


There was row after row of truck that filled the parking lots of 2 motels.


They even had 4-wheelers in the back of their 4 wheel drive super duties.


WhoDaMan express appreciation to the crew and bought a round of brews to show some appreciation from folks on the Redneck Riviera.



Another use was found for duct tape during the rain that we had. It makes a good weather proof covering for the broken foot of our safety lady.

There will be more reports later as they happen of course.



That is all we know at this time.... this is your "WhoDaMan" reporter on the Redneck Riviera bringing you another almost live...with an autobalanced and resized digital color report.

Hawaiian shirts are everyday attire on the Redneck Riviera.

The Redneck Riviera a drinking community with a serious fishing problem

WhoDaMan now has the latest high definition chip for the GPS sonar combo and will be venturing to the inland lakes in order to balance my bodies PH from consuming so much saltwater fish over the years. Stay tune for some exciting freshwater action. Come on down when you get a chance while there are plenty of them biting.

This is WhoDaMan signing off.

7-18-08

Well finally getting some time to update the status of the Redneck Riviera. Took a well deserved brake to pillage and plunder the natural resources of Mexico over the 4th of July.

I was told I look a lot like Hemingway....to bad he didn't have sunglasses.

Currents were still not favorable for marlin but had 2 sailfish and 75 lbs. of Dorado fillets.



SonOfDaMan packing out fish fillets. There was no room in the ice chest for the lizard...next time...heck of a strike on the bait not to catch it.



This is an FYI yall…if you fill up a 48 quart ice chest with fillets you will be over the weight limit for the airlines. Check out the fish tacos Allison made with some of the fish.

SonOfDaMan did his part catching the largest dolphin of his harvesting life. He also picked up the tap on his own boat one day…that helped WhoDaMan go out for an extra day.


I also had the largest stringer of Dorado of my extensive harvesting career.

Nourishment was high on the agenda to keep up the strength for fishing.




Days between fishing left some time for relaxing and taking in the views


Sunsets were a good as you would want and helped settle the belly.



I couldn't believe how big trees had gotten since the last time I was there.


Here in Victoria WhoDaMan recommends Taco Loco’s Magnum Breakfast Burrito…this will keep you going I promise.


It consists of 3 eggs, sausage, bacon, potato, chorizo and cheese…YUM.
