Default Great Cod and Pollack Trip on the Russian Roulette -- 2015-03-20

I jumped on the Russian Roulette for an open boat Codfish trip. 2 guys no-showed but Capt and Mate still went out with 4.

I got to fish with Whitechin Kirk, who I know from NJ, not this board.

Capt ran out about 2 hours. First drop was a slow pick of keeper and throwback code. I jigged up a nice market sized keeper that lost a nice Lavjig to the wreck . Then I got a Dogfish and it was time to go.
We took another ride and settled on a nice wreck. I threw down another jog and got 2 Pollack back-to-back. One one the jog and one on the teaser. One of the other guys was also jigging. Capt calso came down adn jigged. He boated a nice 15lb cod full of herring.

I switched to bait when the jig stopped producing and got another 2.

Wind started kicking up so we tried a n inshore wreck, but got no bites.

Only saw 2 doggies and a Poout the whole trip. We were aout 50/50 keepers to shorts.

Boat wound up with 21 Cod and 2 Pollack. Were greeted with steady snow at the dock. Great day on a great boat.

26 cod and 2 pollack actually. I mostly contributed by keeping shorts off people's hooks. That and the obscene photo.

No shows suck. I hope they read this and realize that their weakness jeopordizes a Captain's livelihood and that Karma's a Bitch !!

I think charter captains should create a dead beat list & keep it amongst themselves. A great way for the charter captains to let other charter captains know who's reliable & who is not. I would be willing to bet that those dead beats did it to other captains.
