Took colleague and sons 13, 15, out to Commanche, first trip for these guys offshore, left dock 6:15, lines in 8:00. 20-22 kts out. Nice ride in the 197 Pioneer. Before I got second bait out had first mahi bite on shot gun. Picked at dolphin for next hour or so, went through a pack and a half of Hoos before my buddy started looking for the green monster and chumming over the side. At this point we decided to call it a day with 2 in the bag. Missed on two good knockdowns on the planer. One SPRO swivel split in half ended second hit. Back on the hill at 12pm. Easy half day and eacch of his kids caught a fish, no complaints. Looking forward to fishing again with at least one on the boat who has an idea of what to do with the rigs.
Wanna,
Glad to see that you were able to get out on the big pond!! Even though it was a short day, it looks like you had some good activity. We need to make it out together soon!

Reel, definately I have missed fishing with you guys this year. Still holding out hope we can get a trip in soon but with work and the new edition things have been hectic to say the least. I have a few new tricks to share. Tight lines.
