Leave the squid in the freezer Jr.

Seas were all frigged up. Bumpy seas, an easy current, and wind blowing 15 to shore. CRAP! After midnite the seas laid back, OK, and the wind slowed a bit, OK, and the current went to nothing, CRAP, .2 mph to the north, that's right 2/10's of a mph. We were basically sitting still. It sucked to say the least. No bumps, no nothing.

Only good thing was we left early and butterfly'd a wreck. 12 drops caught 8 fish.

Stay home and save the fuel JR.

Sounds like a good idea, fishing sucks all around this week :cry:

I guess we can just have some more crazy topics and stupid arguments on SFC like we always manage to do when the fishing sucks and no one is out there. :twisted:

Dangit! It got rough! A few slashed baits and I'm still sore for the ride out(23 Bluewater is da bomb).
I've never seen so much life in the light... squids, flyers, dolphin, etc...

Nick C,

You are right about the life. We were in 1150' of water and had some flyers, houndfish, and ballyhoo swim into the light. Then we had a small random school of 2" fish and then another "ball" of these fish about 2' wide joined the others in the light. For the next 2 hours we watched as a school of Goggle Eyes rose into the light and systematically picked off every one of those little guys. It was the only exitement to our night. I'd never have thunk it! Goggle Eyes and Ballyhoo in 1150' of water. Even when the fishing blows I learn something on every trip.

Well, Did anybody at least catch some Ballyhoo and Goggle-eyes? Sounds like a job for Capt. Sabiki. irat:

Thanks for the reports.

Pass the tartar sauce, for that Goggle-eye cutter. It's, what's for breakfast. Arrgh.
