Sunday night!

Nick C · 06-30-2008, 05:41 PM

Was my 6th trip in a row with out a bite

. Started out with a few day drops and tried out my buddy's "Cranky" for innovated fishing tackle.... That worked for about 10' before a piece of it snapped off

. As night fell we fished the 50.3 out to the 49.5 from just north of the port almost back to Boca without a sniff.

Thought I heard Carbon Copy say he caught an 83"er saturday on the radio...

COÑO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you better check your bait Nick.

Captain Juan · 06-30-2008, 06:32 PM

I am on a similar run Nick. Persistence will pay off. Good luck!!

Luis, by the way, not only swords but big sharks like your baits too.

No swording saturday, just a mess of kings and 7 or 8 mutts.

I feel you, it'll turn around...

Nick C · 06-30-2008, 08:12 PM

I gotcha.... I thought I heard him on the radio.

Captain Joe McGivern · 06-30-2008, 09:02 PM

it's all good lil nicky, Capt Juan and myself were out on friday night. Fished a 20 mile drift, with no bites except for a night shark that tore up one of those "Big Game Baits"

Nick C · 06-30-2008, 10:02 PM

Which is why I resorted to fishing the south jetty of Boca inlet today. Caught a huge puffer and 2 cudas

NightCrawler · 07-01-2008, 08:11 AM

I think jorge just about quit swordfishing all together
