Roger. Managed a couple of teeners and a couple of barely legals but pretty scratchy. The weather wasn't too bad after getting pummeled yesterday afternoon.

Went out from 2-730. Was a bit nasty from 2-4 then the wind started to calm down. Had a couple under size in that 2 hrs. From 5pm it got pretty steady. Landed 2 12lbs and then at 6:45pm it hit and landed a 29lbs. Couldn't have been a better night. Also lost 3 others. Irish cream with green flasher was working great tonight.

Nice report
. That 29 lber put a smile on every ones face I bet .I never made it out. I'm dumping her in tomorrow evening for some sea trials. Might drag something around, we'll see.

A few miles past. It's like finding a needle in a hay stack really. Look for the Spoil Grounds on the charts and work your way out from there. Some guys say sounders don't matter, but for this fishery the best transducer you can afford will help for sure. It's nice to be able to pick up bottom and mark fish or bait balls. If your not marking fish then move East or West.
The gear has been covered quite extensively with the excellent reports this area put's out
. Nice to see Kelly fishing a little South .

Had a buddy who did pretty well at Thrasher/Grande last weekend.....I'd bet there's fish around as it should just continue to pick up over the coming weeks.

WOW! Nice looking fish. Congrats. Now if I could just get my new top and minor maintenance finished I could get my boat in the water and try for one myself.
