[cool] [font "Arial"][size 2]It's been a while since I've been out. Today was a fish on the big boat day. As is usual when fishing the big boat, we left his house at 9:30 am. There are still plenty of small to medium pilchards in Haulover Inlet on both tides. We loaded up on bait and headed out. First stop was on the blue/green edge off the Lotus range. A strong north current in combination with SE winds had us moving north quickly with no strikes. Our next stop was in 365' off the Sea Buoy where we got our first action. Working some heavy scattered grass produced several dolphin (does everyone remember what they are?) in the 6-7 pound range. We continued working the area with no further action as we slid north. After reaching the Twin Towers area, we moved inshore some to the edge in 218'. Our deep bait got hit and 10 minutes later a 25# kingfish was added to the fishbox. We had one other small dolphin (so small we would have released it) hit our bait and throw the hook when it jumped. We stopped at Haulover Inlet on our way in to catch a few more baits to be used at his dock for snapper, barracuda, and tarpon.
