Yup, me and Danny T went out with Komes this morning on Shack Attack
We got into some bones and boohoos on Coxes and they were spitting up 2-3" butterfish, 5" squid and what appeared to be small herring
BTW, Joe - we hit BI first and got into bass and I hooked - and lost...

..a
real nice bass on that black Wobblehead tube over the SW side
We were trolling red tubes and getting gorilla blues on them so I swapped out to the Wobblehead tube figuring it was a closer match to the sandeels, put a 1 oz egg ahead of the swivel to get it right down on the bottom and under the blues - and bang!
I was using that stout JK Fisher boat rod I picked up from Back Beach last Fall that I showed you and it bent it in half - man, I was
bummed when it came unbuttoned, it was a helluva nice fish, couldn't move or turn it when it first hit
Ya know - that damned Wobblehead rigged a bunch of different ways has gotten me more fish this season than anything else in my bag - glad I took the tube version out with me this morning
Thanks, Uncle Joe...
Boy, you old guys really know your stuff...
