Took a buddy out today and MAN was it snotty.....

Boston HABA style. 2-3s early growing to 3-4s. problem with that was we could not do what we wanted.
We had some trouble getting live bait, but managed enough.
We took them inside to a couple of spots first spot just a couple of hits.

Second spot instant FISH ON. Action continued for 2 1/2 hours steady. All keepers, biggest about 18lbs. Buddy took one for the grill, the rest went back to grow bigger.

Took a couple of pics, but buddies camera is not digital...

Its like 9 o'clock now, been off the boat for 4 hours,
BUT SHES STILL ROCKING !!!!!

So what your sayingis the bait from outside worked inside? This bait, was it oily? Good hows the new steering working out?

Took the Fam out on Sunday, very hot. Got them all up at 4:30. Got into a small blitz near Hangman Island. My son caught 2 good size fish about 27"-30" very thin and I assume very hungry. My daughter caught 3-4 small schoolies, what a great start to the season especially spending time with the wife and kids fishing?

Thats how it worked yesterday, but we wanted to fish outside and maybe catch big mama. But it was just too crappy. So inside we went and we found lots of fish, (maybe they were hiding too).
The new steering is definately harder, but when I turn the wheel to the right, the boat goes to the right.
Thats all I want,,,,,, working steering !!!
I should have nice big biceps by the end of the summer.

No, no birds where we ended up.
I did not see any breaking fish like that all day.
