Oh my god. Please get me some epsom salt and Icy-hot. If you are going to fish 500ft plus. You will need some too. What a great day fishing. Warsaw right at 60 pounds a Speckled hind 23 pounds and Tilefish,Yellowedge Grouper,Scamp and large amberjacks. Where all in the mix. We left the dock at 9am planning to fish that day and then that night on the moon and sun up then home. But what happened next was what we all dream about. First stop 127miles SouthWest of Newpass around 2:30pm. Geared up for monster fish with 2 Crystal reels with 200lb test and 3 electros with 100lb test. we start Droping in 474ft and the current is ripping about 1.5 mph. Holy crap what do we do now. We go up the anchor course about a 16th of a mile and drop. I watch the GPS and fish finder and all the sudden the show blows up and the rods go DOWN. Tile fish are biting like crazy. We are catching some on the heavy tackle. We were waiting on the bigboys but they don't show. So we gear down a little changing the hook size and leader. Then it is on. Tile fish, big porgies,Yellowedge and scamp coming in one after the other.
Enough of this type of fishing we came out here to go for the Glory. We decide to move. I tell Mike to gear back up for the big dogs and we are of 12 miles deeper for the Sundowner. I was worried about the current being worse but the gamble was worth it. Stop number 2. 519ft The show is unbelievable. The current was not as bad out there. The baits hit and the rods are all bowed-up. 2 Giant fish hooked and then both cut off. And you know what I mean if you've ever seen a crystal rod bent over the rail. next drop 3 on 2 up The 60 Warsaw and Gag about 30lbs. That we ofcourse let go. Then a big jack and a kitty and so on. The guy's underwear where so far up his arss after hooking the biggest fish of the day and then getting cut off after a 3 minute battle. It was definitly a big SAW I would say 150 or better. His new nickname is T-back. The bite was on until dark and then shut off like a light switch. After looking at the fish box We couldn't get another fish in. And decided instead of staying out we would come on home so we could brag to our buddies that weren't even expecting us until the next day. The fish where biting on everything we put down, Tinkermacs,pinfish,bonita,squid and sardines. All in all one hell of a trip. Hope you guys enjoy the pics. Untill after the 15th. SEEYAAA.
