Heard tons of reports of rats at the Coimbra. Convinced my buddy to go. Went yesterday, over 70 miles from Pt Jud RI. Left at 2am, got there at like 5:30. Got there ,saw #^&#^&#^&#^& for life and boats. I'm like wtf, check numbers I put in, they're right, oh no. Start trolling off the wreck further west, finally see some birds and a few boats. No one hooking up, like 2 hrs later we get hooked up. Boated a 50" fish, phew skunk off his boat, been trying for two years. We did another hour, got another over we released. Decided to head back early as wind can kick up and we;re in a small boat 25 ft. Never saw the rats everyone else has been catching, they must've moved. Only saw one other boat hooked up.
