This high teener king never stood a chance with the super wide Cortez Jigmaster.
Thanks Alan C (Knob, DD bridge, SS sleeve, jack, yoke), and Randy pauly for the super wide kit, and most of all Tom for the cortez Jigmaster plates. If any of you guys lived local I'd run you over a piece or invite you over for a salmon bbq NW style....but alas I must eat solo tonite. Thanks again Alan, Randy and Tom for the high quality parts found nowhere else but here !!
Here is a tease ;) ;)

Not to thread Jack, but wanted to provide a quick update on my fishing...
Sunday did not go as planned. I unintentionally grounded my vessel on a lava rock on the jetty in the harbor at 0400hrs. The thick keel with SS runner protected the boat from damage, but it did damage my ego a bit. I blame inattention, poor visibility, and lack of familiarity with the channel. To ad insult to injury, I dropped my new phone into a deep water filled crevice when jumping off the boat to inspect for damage. Glad I had insurance. The women, who had never been on a boat before, got scared and we ended up canceling the trip.
I managed to sneak out for 3 hours of trolling jets by myself on the 40fa. Ledge by Barber's point this evening though. I picked up a nice 36lb Wahoo at 1730hrs. Then I managed to run into a big mass of marine debris..cargo netting, and rope that thoroughly entangled around my prop, rudder, and running gear. I secured myself to a rope and hoped overboard with a knife. It took me 45mins to cut everything free. This was a common occurrence on Longline vessels so I knew what to do. Not having a mask didn't help matters though. Gonna chalk this one up to another learning experience. Dropped the fish on the block, and it should bring between $100 &$300. Hopefully, I will make it offshore to chase YFT this weekend.
Now back to the regularly scheduled program.

How was it cutting nylon ropes 'n netting etc. Hadda heck of a time cutting net with my scuba knife once. Definitely needed a sharper serrated blade. Least after all that you got some saleble meat!

Not good. It took some patience and persistence to get the job done. Cutting the spectra rope with a straight edge was the hardest. The light nylon netting wasn't a problem.
