July 19, 2008 - Garett's Redemption

After weeks, months, years of heckling about whose fault it was that Garett lost the "big one", he has joined us again and boy did he redeem himself.

The catch for the day consisted of 5 Kings retianed, even though we caught about 15 or so. According to the Aggie we had 6, but I guess it's partly my fault for trusting an Aggie math teacher to do the counting. Garett caught the two largest Kings, while he let Michael real in the two smallest.

In addtion to the Kings another 7 spanish mackerals in the 2-6 pound range were boated. The fish were caught on jet heads and feather squid jigs at 6-7 mph. Seas were about 2' when we left dock, and by the time we reached 10 miles out, seas had reduced to 1'. We ended up fishing rig 177 which is 20 miles SE of the Jetties.
