Stump

We fished offshore with Capt. Ross and his son Russell on 8-12-09 on the ReelBeast. We spent most of the day trolling for pelagics, but the bite was slow with only one Wahoo that Mike brought to the gaff.
While fishing for Snaps, we spotted a nice Hammer Head, so Capt. Ross got a volunteer (Waco) and in less than a few minutes Russell had the bait rigged and the fight was on with an approx. 250# Hammer. The shark was released at the boat to fight another day. We caught a nice limit of Snaps with my personal best at a little over 18 lbs.
Capt. Ross and Russell make a great team and I would highly recommend them for a great day on the blue water. I plan on another trip this fall for tuna.
Thanks for a great time Capt. Ross. (Reelbeast.com)

I figure Stump's Snapper deserved another picture.

Looks like he was able to put yall on fish. Knowing snapper season is over, what does he turn to this time of year and what is the maximum amount of people and charge? Any surcharge? Looking for a guide to head offshore early next month. Any and all info would be appreicated.

You went out on a boat with Ross Shocked

I don't think I could spend a day on a boat with him you can only have so much fun. Great pics and great fun with a good Capt. what more can you ask for.
