Ocean Explorer Wednesday

[Ocean Explorer]

12-18-13 We had some nice conditions on the water today,,calm ocean with only a light chop in all that breeze we had today...WE had fish coming to the net as soon as we stopped today to.Our first limit of blackfish was caught early on..Kevin took high hook with a limit plus maybe four others.,,and a nice Codfish went in the mix..I believe Mr.O got his limit as well,few struggled and just could not get a hook in a fish,or got 1 or 2,it was a strange bite today..We lost alot of fish that just pulled the hook,,probably lip hooked...They were being careful eating the baits..Some others had 3-4 keepers as well so it was a decent day..I can say to that we busted off some real big fish as well but the two pool fish in the first two pics below were nice weighing in at just under 11 lbs..White leggers were the best..Tomorrow looks nice again,,heading back out after some of those big fish we lost today!!!!!pics...

Hats off to Capt. Bobby for some major Exploring. And of course Mikey too.I shaved off, missed, and dropped just as many as I hooked, and some where BIG. The cod was a very nice surprise to add to the cooler. It was a very strange bite, some scratched away, laid on it, and some just hammered the bait. Missed the pool by an ounce or two. It was a pleasure having Bobby come down and put on a dogfish clinic for us:D Great day in my book.
