Lol …did he at least buy some beer and gas!

Oh he’s getting an invoice at the end of the weekend. He knows the drill. To give him a smidge of credit he did set the second rod on the double header. Hoping for another good day tomorrow!

Anyone out there now? How's the rain/wind? Decided against going out this morning, starting to regret it

Watch out fishing the mile markers, about half way between at 120' snagged some abandoned/qhost traps. Managed to circle around and get everything back but what a **** show.

Same here. Darn. I was out a few weeks ago and wind forecast was similar as today but got worse. So decided against it today.

Well that was a great day. I got to try absolutely everything in my box and didn't get a single bit of blood on the deck! My shed neighbors managed to bonk 4, and we were fishing nearby off the bell. Anyway awesome day, gotta head out for redemption before April 1.

Have been fishing every day since we launched Tuesday when the docks went in at Sunset Marina. All fishing around hole in the wall. Just 2-3 hrs more in the late afternoon. Fishing had been awesome with many doubles. Shakers mixed with many in the 50 cm. Today was exceptional with at least 30+ hits between 2 of us. 3 doubles in the mix. Guess about 10 Shakers and another 20 in the 50 range. 1 at 60 and another at 61. Finally landed a 65 cm to top off the day. Most hits between 70 to 90. If the tug is your drug today was an overdose day.
