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...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
