Ran the boat last Thursday
I hadn't run my boat since Jan 2, which was off of OCMD where we had a slow but decent day on rockfish. With the very cold winter I feared some issues somewhere along the line. Fortunately the only casualty was a bilge pump, which I replaced last night. The bay water temp was 40.8 degrees and we didn't mark any bait. We did see an osprey with a menhaden in its talons on Saturday. I know fish are making their way in the bay since I am getting reports from various locations of big fish being caught, including up by BPL.
Here are a few short videos from my iPhone of the boat running on glass by the Bay Bridge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL4cbgEAXAU Cruising 4350 @ 24kn (27.5mph) www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_4NQVtUlaA Wide open Throttle hit 33.4kn (38.5mph) www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrpTF39E7CU |
That Honda just hums right along effortlessly. Why didn't I see any rods onboard? Did you actually just go for a boat ride?? Did your son grow a foot taller over the winter?? :D
