Fair Weather Fisherman

[Breakaway]

Years ago it didn't matter. I was ate up with fish and would go regardless of how bad the wind was blowing. Now I hate getting my ass kicked, so I'll pass if the wind is howling. I knew this morning would be bad, so I waited and the forecast was right on for today. Wind laid down about 10am so I headed out. Was solo today (another reason not to go out in rough conditions) so I set the autopilot and started putting out the 16 rod spread. Caught 2 real nice fish (47" and 41") while setting lines, and thought I was going to have a banner day. Action slowed after that but did catch one more fish (44") about 2 hours later. Hope to get another somewhat fair weather day again soon.
