Fishing off the balcony...

[gonzo1124]

I'm planning on bringing my heavy duty fishing gear to fish all the way form the 9th (Lido) deck balcony. Anyone else done this before?

:p;):D:rolleyes:(joke):cool::eek:

I have.

 

I cooked the 50 lb Marlin I pulled in on my deluxe George Forman Grill in my cabin.

 

Seriously.

Now you've done it... my brother is packing his gear:o

[Dawn125408]

Are you serious :confused:

 

Oops - just saw that it was a joke

[kyrisong1]

I'm pretty sure you need to have your food processor to make the salsa to serve with the fish you grill on the balcony after you catch it.

But what about those with inside cabins? Where do they fish?????

And for that George Foreman grill, for SHAME, where is your sense of adventure. Too good for charcol and lighter fluid??? sheesh

You fished with a George Forman Grill?? :confused:

I really hope not, that is just a waste of electricity, I'm SO against them.:D

What can I say. I'm a Yuppy.

 

We enjoyed the Marlin with a nice box of wine too.

What sort of BAIT do you recommend ??:rolleyes:

I would forget about the George Forman and just do sushi. Why waste luggage space :D.

[arush5268d]

I haven't had much luck fishing off of a boat that was moving at ~25mph.

You know if you just let all the fruit stay in the ice bucket in the room for awhile you can make your own wine :p

I like the boxes though, keeps the screw top from rusting if you leave it in the cooler too long;)

Please tell me Jeff Foxworthy has not joined Cruise Critic. Hmmm you might be a redneck...:D Make sure you save your drink of the day cup to spit your chewing tobacco juice into.

 

And as for the grill, being a GA girl, I would definitely opt for a Fry Daddy, cookng oil, and some seasoned cornmeal.

George Forman Grill, no way charcoal or nothing.

OP: You might want to use at least a 1000ft of line and don't forget a hook on a 100 ft pole. Catching is the easy part, it is getting the bad boy onboard that could be tricky. :D

You can always bring a crockpot and make fresh fish chowder!! :)

I used my fly rod on the Lido, the casting hooked 5 german tourists and tipped over some drinks. So I just trolled from my balcony for the rest of the trip. I was cleaning grouper on the balcony, the wind caught some guts and they flew right onto the people in the adjoining balcony....AWKWARD!. They were cool though. Until I started wing shooting seaducks, then they called security.

Actually this was done a few years ago.

 

Someone went fishing off his balcony and caught a cute little sunfish. Even posted pictures.

 

P0obrably the funniest thread ever.

The only thing I've ever caught on the Lido Deck with my Fly Rod was Crabs.

Couple of tips: use your luggage strap to belt yourself into the chair on the balcony and make you get some lemons from the lido deck. You can't have fish without lemon!

Interesting choice of verbage.

Hey ...I brought my Weber and fired up the coals when I got my Tuna on.

Interesting choice of verbage.

Do you think she needs help with her verbage? or is that verbage just fine all by itself?
