Trolling 11/17
Out today, upper bay, with Alan (justchillin), Mark (baldzilla), and Lou. We were on Alan's 23 proline today. Had a great morning with a 30, 41, and Mark boated a nice 45. No fish for Alan today, we made him stay at the helm to avoid crabpots in 70 feet of water. All fish caught on the boards and with light chutes. When the tide stopped, so did the bite.
Special thanks to Alan for demonstrating his auto pilot to Mark. Saw Skip and Don out today and they seemed to be doing very well (hope they post). While the big fish are not here in large numbers (according to our catch rate), they are here for the taking. We kept the 30 in fish for the table and released the other two (I don't know why, since they will die anyway - according to the MCBA). Both yesterday and today called for "small craft warnings", but both days were more than manageable. Best of luck to all those going out the rest of the week, 5th (Marty)
