Hey Mark, Got out today ,, still nasty ... it was blowing from the north ... with whitecaps ...plus a strong current made it a lot of work to stay near the bottom .. had one wave hit me side ways and got water in the boat .. and I also got soaked ... took a while to find the Tiles ... I tried some of the numbers I got months ago where I got my 16lber .. ... and this time the fish gods let us have two tiles ...one 9.5 lbs & 5lbs... plus one cusk eel ! My rod tip was in the water when the 9.5 tile hit ... with the stong current made it feel like a monster , but I`ll take it how it comes .. gave a great fight .. maybe I get the biggin tommorrow!! was just to rough to stay out .. ... I still like my owner 5/0 Circle wide gap hooks !!!... manually you can fight the fish and take your time ... when I know its big I just ease off the drag .. haven`t lost a big one yet ... still got two months ... there`s a deep hole I am wanting to try ... I am sure it is holding a large tile in it .. just need a calm day ...!!!
