Fished today on Finrazor with cdial (kurt) and his friend Ash. With little to go on except for sat shots and rumors of a north bite we headed to the hardest break I could find on the AM sats. That took us somewhat north to the 680 line in 40 fathoms. Lines in around 7:30AM in 70 degree water- short of where there was warmer stuff. Knowing it was gonna be a short day because we knew it would blow up early, all eyes were on the alert... we threw out 6 different colors, Rasta bar and purple/pink planer. 1/2 hour into the troll and at 73 degree h2o break, we had a couple of knock downs and boated our first YF's. Within another 1/2 hour we had a couple of tire kickers, including a HUGE wahoo that skied on one of our short riggers, nothing boxed. Another half hour and we came tight on a decent YF and boxed it. All fish and sniffers were caught within a 1/4 mi of the first bite. THEY WERE THERE... 680 line/45 fathoms. Man did it start to blow a wee bit earlier than expected and lines out after 2 hours. Had we been able to stay and hold ground, no tellin what the catch would have been... Lines out 10:15AMish... THEN the azz kickin commenced!! Yikes- tight knuckles- 4-5's in a stiff 25 outta the NW. Dockside 1:20..
