I'll start things off and MJ can add his pics later.
We met at the ramp at Green Harbor at roughly 5:30 AM. got out of the harbor and prepared to make our 20 mile run out to the south west corner of Stellwagon Bank just off the tip of Provinctown.
Conditions were flat calm.

The arsenal
Wasn't long until we were into the fish. It took a topwater Sluggo
Mark was the reelman on this one. He and I worked the reels all day long. MJ was the wheel man to keep us on course and a steady speed. Kenny worked the leader on this fish. I harpooned it and bled it out in the water. Things were like a Chinese Fire Drill in the boat for a little bit with a couple of tangled lines coming in.

Making a troll
Lots of whales out there. I've never seen so many
Only allowed one fish per boat on HMS. we were back home by noon.
Great day. The boat ran well. Couple of fuel issues, but I don't think it's anything serious. It ran for 6 hours non-stop.
Thanks MJ
