Put in around 140’ near R-8. Worked NE towards The Deli. No bait, no flyers and no fish. Three cudas and a king and none of them over 175’. Worked out to 220’ or so then dropped some bottom with moderate success. No breaks or weeds anywhere that we saw. A school of sharks stayed with the boat for the three or so hours that we bottom fished and the only birds we saw were looking for scraps off the bait tray. Glad we got what we did.

Mhhh,
Doesn’t sound good for my early Saturday trip. Guess I’ll plan to just bottom fish

East Bound

East Bound Catching some Zs

Another great day on the water aboard the STONER. I experimented with two new things. Both were a bust. First was the Lucanus jigging lures, which did catch the secrete bait of the day but other than that not much to it. Also tried a 12’ leader in 200’ of water. I am sure that most can imagine how that turned out.
Looking forward to some cooler weather and better fishing!

MC: Likely too much current and wind moving the boat to experiment with that rig. It came back up in one big tangle. Would like to try it again under better conditions. Have you used a leader that big before?

yes sir, generally only with a live bait though
control the drop and use a bigger weight.

Cool, I will try it again. Are you on the hook or drifting?

Man, I’ve never seen a just-under 175’ cuda! Do y’all gaff them or just shoot 'em?
Now, that one was a knee slapper!!
