Encouraging sign on this big fish here today with a slow scratch that produced 22 fish, 10 of which were 70-115 with a 165 and a 182. We did have one stop that was reminiscent of the Thanksgiving trip with 90 - 200lbers blowing out 360 degrees around the boat. Being the first stop of the trip on this size fish, casualties were high with 5 out of 12 hookups hitting the deck. Hopefully this area is just starting to develop and we have an even better day tomorrow. Our beautiful weather continues.
