We started our day around 7:30 am, the ocean was almost flat, fishing was slow even with livies, managed to hook a KingFish at 170', then later on, hooked another one but it cut my Gog in half and went on his way (what's that about $2.75?). The only issue today was the amount of boats every where, most don't seem to care about small crafts and just run you by at full speed. So by noon we started to pedal back to the beach and ran in to a huge turtle, not sure if it was sick or injured but it was unable to go down, sad.
My group probably saw your group on one of the wrecks. There were more fishermen than fish on Saturday!
Good for you on the king! I got my livebait whacked hard but no hookup when coming in at 1pm.
Nice fish. That's the problem when its flat calm out. Every boater, every kayaker, everybody wants to be on the water. The bait hole was slammed pack that morning, it was bumper boats!!! I haven't seen a boat in the bait spot for weeks! And on that day there was 20.
