After yesterday's trip, I actually went and bought a flat of buggies. Left the dock at 5:45 with No Ragrets and our brides. Set up 3-4 miles from my slip in 26' of water north of the small charter fleet that was already there. If the fish keep coming north, I may not even need to leave the slip!
Chunked up a few fish between 21-24" and boxed 3. Bored with chunking already, we picked up and started trolling about 7:00. Immediately hooked up with a short on BFGs and then the big fish started. Boxed 2 overs and another nice under. Fish hit on both red hose and spoons. Caught enough that the crew was arguing that they "reeled in the last one, it's your turn!"
Talked to a few others that had done well chumming south of me as well.
What a difference a day can make!!
Hopefully the elderly man with the medical emergency out there made out ok. Chumming in the bay is no place to have a potential heart attack.
July 3rd - back with a vengeance!
