Tuesday Cod fishing

First trip of the year went real nice! New motor was awesome and the fishing was great also!!
We got a good load of Cod and Pollock, no Haddock But that's ok for my first time in this area I think we did real well!
Fish on the bank in 100 to 130 feet of water, tried clams but all that did was bring in the Dog.s! So we just jigged. After a few moves we got on top of them just fine. I would say 1 in 7 were shorts with some nice 10 pounders.

Joe,

Do you normally gill and gut all your fish before fileting? Lot of extra work there. We usually just bleed and ice/slurry to firm them up before fileting.

Nice day and full coolers, hoping for similar day/luck tomorrow. Few showers, maybe.....

Just got my 20hr service (after rebuild) and a clean bill of health, letting that engine rip tomorrow.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

This is my first boat video cam, my brother bought it for his wife and she did not like it so I got it from him for $50, So I won't be out much if anything happens to it.

Bleeding make all the difference in the world !
My trips, every cod/pollock/haddock ect... goes straight into the livewell with their throats slit (Nice having a huge livewell)
After some time in the the livewell they get filleted, bagged & iced.
Fillets get skinned later due to regulations.
