Got to Staleys and hour and a half before light along with 25 other guys. Sustained 25 winds were already blowing. Miserable. By first light there were close to 50 guys in that spot. By ten there were two of us left. Landed four before sun came up. Decided to move to get out of some of wind and hit the mother lode. Hooked close to 35 fish and put twenty on the deck. Still really windy but not as bad. Used only two rods with jawjackers and they ran me to death. Four almost two hours I didn't have gloves on because of taking off fish. Here are a few of the nicer ones.

Nice looking fish! Sounds like a pretty darn good day, even though you were fighting the wind...

Highly recommend buying one of these to measure fish with as it is way easier than screwing with a tape measure. Would never go back to a tape measure after using one.

Thanks for showing me where to get. Hooknhunter has one and I was wondering where he got it. I will pick one up this week.
