Made the run today in 3' seas with occasional 4 footer aboard the mighty "Idle Wake". set lines out at 830. fishing was a tad slow compared to earlier in the week but morning was better then afternoon.
Four of us ended up with our 20 fish by around 2:30. All fish between 7 and 11 lbs. 'Riggers at 45 to 50 feet, short leads 10 to 20 feet. #1 dipsy's at 95 and 110. #3 dipsy's at 130 and 150. Anything with orange in it was hot. "Jerry Lee", double orange crush, chicken wing all worked well.
Riggers seemed to account for almost half the fish. Gas bill was a killer but was well worth it.
Thanks Paul! :)
