[Foul Hook]

Well opted to wait for the SCA to expire and met at the dock at 9am, nice to sleep in. Got everything set and pushed off for our usual grounds about a mile from my mark I see oil on the deck below the helm. Rut Ro! After a short diagnostic I had to make the call to head back to the dock. I carry all the safety gear, life raft,epirb,ect.. but this time of year is not to be taking a chance. By the time I got back to the dock I barely had steering capabilities. Cold weather F#@ks with everything. We had a good tog season, one my personal best. Lots of limits and good quality fish. We found some good spots that holds quality fish and will return. Good luck to all!! FH
