OIFC fishing report 8-8

[Fishing Report]

Kings Show Up" | OIFC World Cat / Carolina Cat | 08/08/11

PTL!!! Kings have finally shown up someplace between Virginia and S. Georgia! In fact they were in @60ft of 83 degree water 20 miles off shore in the morning today. They weren't huge, but as Capt. Rube would say about King Mackerel Tournament fishing, "size is relative".

Captain Steele and Captain Chris Eckert were trolling with frozen cigar minnows on a 6 hr charter booked by Greg and Colleen Gutirrez, Randy and Julia Shearer, James Reid and Dan Kudia. Julia caught the biggest king and Randy caught the littlest. Only re-enforcing my theory that ladies are better fishermen than men. Let's hope these kings will bring along a whole colony!

I wonder where Ryan Neuwirth caught this red? I can't believe he stopped surfing long enough to fish.

"Within Sight" | Get Busy | 08/04/11

My friend and very accomplished angler Tim Gallimore fished within sight of the OIFC and prevailed using his "Channelside" rig. Tim is keeping this top secret weapon very close to the vest, but is willing to share it with the Bonecrusher under certain conditions. Negotiations must be channeled through this reporter.

Back to the catch...On this trip Tim caught and released a a 22" and a 26.5" red drum and a 7 lb black drum using live shrimp and pogies on a Channelside rig.
