We have a crew that comes out for rig move to clean her up. 7-8 dudes with turbo nozzles just wreckin shop. Pit cleaning in oil based mud is the worst. Those dudes and black from head to toe

Man that sounds sounds like so much fun I love pressure washing

I don’t think you would like this but i dont know how you get down. Ill get a pic next time the we clean pits after oil based mud. Our mud pumps are just 80k pound pressure washers. You have a power end and a fluid end. We’re drilling at 605 gpm/ 2750 psi. When things fail, they usually fail big and it’s quite a mess

You out by south west pass in the fedreal waters of Venice Louisiana?

Land rig. North Louisiana 30 miles south of shreveport. When inwas working offshore, i caught out of venice a few times. End of the world out there

When I was a younger man I had a job cleaning oil furnaces I imagine it’s the same kinda dirty I always just loved cleaning something super dirty. When I say super dirty I mean old school down and dirty pressure on the wall kinda cleaning

Then you would love cleaning pits. These guys get wrecked. Oil base turns to slop when it hits water and those dudes are down there partying like crazy with those turbo nozzles

I was a deckhand/captain when our original captain was faced lol. It was for a company called couvillon for the DWHW
fiasco. We set up in Pascagoula MS and then later on at the end of the world boathouse on the end of lake ponchetrain for 2 years. 15 best friends all living in a hotel out of college making oil spill money 2k a week to go out of the pass at Venice or horn pettis boi island. Then be only a night ride from New Orleans or the casinos in Gulfport and a 1/5 of crown every night, Oh My lol.
People ask why I don’t drink so much. ^^^^

Careful now there’s not that many of those red snappers out there, we gotta protect em Don’t want them going extinct :joy:

There were 5 of us, 92 total fish with most being the smaller white snapper so I probably took home about 15# of fillets. Already fried some but yeah I can eat fish every day. Couple gag grouper and tilefish in there too.

Haha that’s a good problem to have


Electric reels will spoil you, feels like cheating

Wow :joy::joy::joy: i seen a electronic reel with Bluetooth bait alart to your phone gps tracking all that. Ill never in my life buy one.

I never even knew they had electric reels. Makes sense though. They have electric everything nowadays. Heck, if cars can drive by themselves I guess reeling in a fish electronically is old technology. Feeling the little bite and then feeling it get stronger is one of the best parts. I guess it’s probably different fishing the ocean though. You’re talking maybe 1/2 reeling tops on a good size bass versus like 5 hours for tuna or something. Electric would be nice then if you fish a lot. If not you’d look like that picture that @Hotshot posted where the guy had one huge bicep and one small.
