Nothing but a handful of 2 pound bluefish on TLD 25s and Penn Intl 50s, eating expensive ballyhoo trolling baits and chewing leaders...

Oh...we snapped a cheap outrigger pole...

Stopped at the Stolt wreck on the way in. A lot of work to get 3 ling (red hake).

The only good thing I can say is I didn't lose an anchor.

I never turned on the GoPro.

Back at dock after 4pm

Friends report of getting one 36" Mahi on edge of the AC Ridge on cedar plug......clearest water was 12-15 miles off.....temp 78, turtles around etc so they stopped there.
