Just finished chatting one of my charter boat buddies who charters locally. They departed early this morning at first light and headed out to the Slash.
They trolled around uneventfully for the first hour having a good hit, but nothing that stuck. After another half an hour they had just finished making a turn and then it hit.
After a 25 minute battle..it was in the box..the guest was aghast at what he saw...the biggest fish he had ever landed. On the dock it measured 33 lbs. It was BRIGHT chrome said the guide.
Details of the catch are that it was hit about 830 am, on a Big Shooter 11" flasher with a long leader to a 5" anchovy.
Depth was at 90 feet.
For the duration of the trip they hit 2 undersize springs on a gypsy florescent glo green spoon and lost one other possible keeper to a seal.
Guess where I'm going to be fishing tomorrow? Looks like it's gonna be windy..DARN!
I knew I shoulda called in sick today! DOH!
