Yup, that's the one....left Saturday night at 11:30 pm.....hit the first wreck about an hour before sun up...fished that wreck for about 5-6 hours where we caught most of our fish. moved about 1.5 hours to 2nd spot...nothing but dog fish, conger eels (ugly bastards) and silver eels...(Slimy bastards). Last stop which we figure was probably out at the mud hole was some ling and more dog fish. Headed in about 4:00 back at the dock at 6:30 PM

All in all a good trip. Between the four of us we had a decent mixed bag of pollock, cod, ling and porgies...and TONS OF MONSTER SEA BASS.....damn sea bass closure!....it actually got pretty frustating after a while of pulling up double fatty sea bass from 200' only to send the back. My friggin arms are numb this morning. Couldnt lift my left arm above my head last night.

Willy...you couldnt be more right...its all about the HANDS....based upon your comment I brought 3 pairs of gloves which was about 1 pair to few....took the first pair off to tie a rig, blew off the bench onto the deck conveniently right where the big ol water hose that runs constantly is....1 down, second pair I mistakenly left out on the bench while we moved which and hour and a half later were frozen rock hard with a 1/4" of ice on them . 2 down

The third pair which were just regular insulated gloves almost lasted me until the tips got soaked.....then it's all over...

Will post up a few pics tonight.
