Default 7/10 report

Fished with my buddy Bruce on the Kikisring. Went 2 for 2. The first fish hit the middle float. Bruce faught him for about 25min until i sunk the poon in him (first time using a poon harpoon it was sweet) measured out 61''. a free swimmer came up with the fish that looked barly legal but swam off. we iced the fish and started to get the tip rods back out when the deep float took off. Up came a barely legal fish probably around 48'' that was released. I think it was the free swimmer. Re set over the same drift and nothing for 6 miles until we called it a night.

Darts are fun...good work with it, Barry. We had one 300-400 lbs. 85-90'' swim under the boat and bat at the runner we stuck in its face. Missed the runner a few times, stared it down, and kept going. Aside from that, seas have been great and the fishing is decent.
