Fished the 380 line out of Charleston. Found a weed line in about 400' and had it all to ourselves. Lots of life on the line including dolphin busting flyers in the middle of the grass. We caught 30 dolphin ( Kept 19 including a +/- 35lber) and a sail. At 1 point we had 70 peanuts around the boat, swimming with the teasers and dredge. Pulled out the spinning gear and had some fun with them. The bite shut down when a school of porpi showed up. They were either eating flyers or peanuts, but the rest of the fish on the line stopped eating all together.
After the fish got lock jaw, we headed in shallow to try for a wahoo, with no luck. We did have two more Sails come through the spread, but I could not get a hook in either one. Managed 2 more gaffers before picking up lines and heading to the hill. We had a great ride home at about 35kts.
Pics should be coming soon.
Also, congrats to Bak Bar for winning The Big Rock. They are docked in the slip next to us, and are the nicest guys you could want to meet. Way to go Tommy and Montukie!
