We had pretty steady action all day until we went all the way through 5 packs of bait. We pulled the hooks on a lot of fish, had some short strikes, and lost 6-7 rigs today from the hook stealers. We caught 16 dolphin (kept 8), 6 kings, 1 wahoo, too many cudas. Then Greg and I did a quick dive and we killed 3 grouper (36", 33", 30") and snagged 3 lobster. Not a bad looking box for as hot as it is. Greg even jumped in with a mask and speargun looking for a triple tail up under a weedline. I think his white man-flesh scared them away, but at least he can say he swam around in 240’. I at 3 swiss cake rolls.
It was very nice to have greg and schoolboy working in the cockpit today. We only had 1 tangle and it was a very easy one.
Skinnee, that’s the main reason I bought a used stripteaser… until I know the ■■■■ thing will put fish in the box, I don’t want to take a shot at losing one. I feel your pain, man. Sounds like you had a better day than most… I’m shooting for Thursday.
Thanks again for the trip Skinee. It was a good time.
And a heads up to the other divers out there, it must be breeding season for the Lobsters. We had to leave two down there that were full of eggs. Hopefully they’ll lay them all in the next few weeks and we can get back to good eat’n.

We only had one bean bag on the boat, so there were more people awake to watch the lines. It’s amazing how few tangles you get when people are actually watching the spread! GO FIGURE!!!

So you are telling me you cant watch the spread from the front of the boat on a bean bag?
