Still NOT dialed in, YET

went 0 for 6 last night on sum pretty impressive eel takes.
slingin' big snakes at my biggest producer up Cape Anne's way,,,,,,,,,,,,,
i had sum disappointing drops and tooooo much rookie error.

right place, tide, moon, & time;
evidently, the wrong surfcaster on the working end of the stick!!

some surf would've been nice,,,,,,,,,,slack-like water for 5 hours.
when the slippery ones hit the water it sounded like sumbody threw
a body overboard ~~as the surf was eerily quiet.

it was good to "feel" some bigger fish as it appears they are starting to move into their Sept places. it shore would be nice to find last fall's touch again. from Sept to Nov i was batting around .875 after TT shared his eel p-up tutorial. prolly could significantly increase my hookset ratio if i'd use the right sized(i used 9/0 gami's for 17"-22"ers; overkill, ya think?) hooks and could learn to COUNT to FIVE!!!

no worries,,,,,,,,,,,there's still time and at least three more nights of
New darkness. had the biggest of them beothces strip the hook of my largest eeeeeel. stinking through the mouth and out the throat hook position!!! and SHE was serious about leaving me the hook,,,,,,,,,,,
a very firm, lower half, grab/couple of head jerks/saaaay buh-bye to mr wiggly!
