The birds…should have brought a shotgun.
Went straight out. Had lines in at 0630 in 150, kept going deep out to 400’ and had to turn to avoid a storm. 1 cuda in 150’. Kept zig zagging, and found lots of rips and temp breaks, but no weeds and no fish. At 1300 we started bottom fishing in 160’. Caught 3 grouper, 2 AJ, 2 big b-liners and went back to trolling at 1500 on a weedline in 180’. Picked up 2 phin 10-15, at 1600 we went home.
I wish we could have gone deeper, but there was a big storm in the way. Herd radio talk of someone filling the box with phin at the 41004. Sounded like he did the best, most everyone else was having a slow day like us. Phin’s caught on green/pink/mylar witches.
Sorry, not much to take a picture of.
