took 3 newbees trying to make a crew at the last min. fished the sw banks for 2 hrs. after daylight, nothing. went to the GT Hole & took a tripple knockdown. Pandimonium, cut 90lb seastran on the gunnel trying to get a 10lb, slinger in (freedom for it). put a 20 lb in the box than after a grand 15 min battle and 4th time to the rail a30-to 40lb slober spits the hook,frist fish for Larry, bad luck. missed a few others and back at the banks on the way home,another 3 fish knock down, two spit the rubber hooks we were using and two of the crew were fighting the same 35lber wich flipped of the gaff at the rail(capts. fault)broke another wire, took my $20 Islander with him! Just could not get our act together today.We had a great day on the water though as the Kept ride out was dry at 32kts. & the ride in at 40!Kept three good fish, lost at least 6 very good ones. Great crew though & hopefully have that out of the way for this year.
If it got any better I couldn’t stand it.
