Title: One more surprise.
Post by: gstours on March 09, 2019, 06:22:12 PM
Yes it's winter,  so there's lots of stuff you can't do right?  We have had some great weather up here recently so it was decided that another morning of trolling would be a seemingly good idea.
   I found a good fish 🐠 that wood bite.   Here's a picture of a happy camper.
It struck a king candy blue chrome 🔌 plug,  so here's the start of the story and it. Starts with a picture.

Mr. Gobi, trolling along the rocky shorelines at approximately 2 mph at slack tide,  then a little faster with the current as the water started to run.    Just fast enough to make the plug roll over fairly well.   Never a title spin.   Thanks 🙏.
   We were pulling the largest deep six divers, in between 19 And 40 feet just outside of the kelp beds and around the rocky points of the shoreline.   It's part of my life, windy and rainy today,  gusts to 30 so I'm staying home and mending things and dreaming of just one more 🐠 fish.🤦‍♀️🚣‍♀️

Gary, Thanks, yikes 30 mph gusts, we had a few of those and it crashed  all the ice on top of the shoreline  :o

Tight lines.
