CTT - the macks have several short lasting drag pulling hard runs, the last of which happens at the side of the boat. The blues have a more constant pull, not really taking a lot of drag per say, but strong fighting. I was using 8lb mono mainline and 15 lb mono leader. Fly used 20 lb powerpro braid.

Willy, wish you were there too brother. The inshore conditions were spectacular despite the weather man calling for 2 - 3's & gusts to 20 knots which never materialized, thankfully. You could tell it was a good bit rougher a few miles out.

I forgot to mention we got nearly 2 dozen big ol blue crabs in my crab pot. I gorged myself with claws monday night. Good times! Too bad Fly has a nasty allergic reaction to shellfish....he can't eat shrimp, oysters, clams, crabs, etc. etc. That would be a living hell! He eats the hell outta fish though.

Thanks FWB! Spanish, its all gone!
I fried the spanish, divided it up and took some to my folks and my sister and her family. We ate some of them fried and made a spanish sandwish with leftovers the next day.

I'm really pumped up because we got a good feel for how to catch the sheeps. Its a real challenge and a lot of work but fun and very rewarding!
