Yesterday, I moved my boat out to Kirby Marina. I just had to see what it was like so put a crew together yesterday. It was a little bumpy going out not bad 2-3's it was just the washing machine that was bad. We made it to 35 out just messing arounds eeing if it would lay.
Sure enough it did as the day went on, we moved out to around the 50 mile mark. Winded up being as far as we needed to go. Didn't have the best box of the day, however, we did add some more meat to the freezer. I was kind of short on time today so I wanted to concentrate on one area for the day and hope the fish cooperated. I had great markings on one small rock that the fish were everywhere around for 300' anyway from it. We caught our snapper fairly quick, started chumming it to see if we could get some ling or dolphin up and sure enough they both came to play, the only problem was the ling weren't playing nice. We saw no less the 6 today wasn't prepared most of the day and when we were couldn't get them to hit. I was saving my livies for something else. And that paid off. I pull another 50ish # warsaw off of the rock soon after. Right after that one we had another one that went about 35ish. That is the hardest fish to throw back...Then we had the monster hook up. But of course this one turns out like all others and is just a fish story. It got us in the rock and we couldn't get it out. Another guy hooked it and in the transition of belt and all that good stuff, I was holding the rod, this fish was big. It made the 60#er I caught last week feel like bait. But none of that matter it's just a fish story lol..
Overall a good day on the water caught some fish. Now one of theses days when I finish the job I'm on I'll get to go play in the deepwater.
