Capt. Phil Dulanie had the Jim Dovico charter out on the Canyon Runner leaving very late Friday they did not get off to the water until 11pm and thus went right to the drift. They did not have a touch at night and saw barely any life in the lights. Up on the troll in the morning they stayed in around the 1000 - 1200 fathom line in 68 degree water and did not have a touch all morning. They worked down from the 1000-1200 fathom lines of the Toms to the Carteret and struck out. Trying to bail out the trip they ran up to the Toms to drop for tilefish and also struck out. All in all a very bad trip. They did read a ton of bait all day (see pictures) attached of our Northstar recorder but to no avail - which made it that much more frustrating for them. |
