Stillness Before the Cast

FTF Journal Entry

Date: April 10, 2025

Time: 2:37 PM

Mr. Meow Meow just curled up between my legs while my girl softly snores next to me. Pops is asleep in the next room. There’s a peace in this moment I can’t ignore—and I’m grateful.

Tomorrow we fish.

Bad Intentions Fishing Charters is the move—coastal Georgia vibes, inshore style. It’s all bays and rivers around Savannah. Redfish, trout, sheepshead, flounder, black drum, and maybe a Jack Crevalle if they show up for the season. No offshore stuff—no snapper or mahi, just local water and local rhythm.

We’ll be posted on a 19’ Carolina skiff, built for this. Room for four, trolling motor for the sneak-ups, and all the gear locked and loaded. Captain Marcus runs a tight ship—stricter boat limits than GADNR, all in the name of conservation:

• Redfish – 3 per person

• Speckled Trout – 10 per person; throw back anything over 20”

• Sheepshead – 10 per person

• Flounder – 5 per person

• Black Drum – 5 per person

They clean the fish. We just bring food, drinks, and a cooler of cold ones (no glass, no liquor).

It’s more than a fishing trip—it’s restoration. It’s rhythm. It’s FTF.
