We went on a real long boat ride yesterday. Started out at the Sow Pen and went out to 800 feet looking for a reported weed line - didn’t find it. Trolled back in to 250 feet - nothing. Dodged some rain storms that looked like they might be building so we trolled north - no activity - dead
We were about 15 miles from the Edisto Banks so we ran up to the banks and trolled inside and outside of the banks. A couple of small peanuts and nothing else. Heard a report on the radio of a boat loading up on dolphin in 135 feet, so we started in. A couple of cudas, but nothing else. Trolled in to 100 feet and caught a cuda and pulled them in at 3:00.
Forgot to mention - we did have a sailfish smack a bait in 200 feet at the Sowpen - I guess that a big deal on a day like this.
Long SLOW day. Hot water all the way - 81 degrees or worse even out deep.
