2-7-14 Made our way back out finally in nice ocean conditions...Water offshore about 38 degrees..The life was a little sluggish but still we had bites..Skip took home the pool with this large blackfish that ate another crab shrimp combo..IT was big,,,30 inches long,,,,a male that looks like it weighed about 14lbs...we shall see in a while but it was definately a nice fish.A few ling here and there,,not good but when I went down with gulp ghost shrimps I had three nice ling in about ten minutes so I think they were there,,just had to be dialed in and work for em..One or two hooks on a nice leader down on the bottom and slowly bouncing it helped you get some for dinner..If your not sure just ask one of the mates how to get set up correctly and it will help your chances..One small Cod today,,the usual bergalls were active,,and some eels and stuff..In the end nothing to write home about but we caught some fish,,,Im just happy we are getting bites with the water as cold as it is...The weekend looks nice again,,,,We still have crabs and clams for bait...
