I went yesterday and it was a slam . . . all over some rough bottom that ate jigs like candy. That and double-headers shredding too light leaders . . . but not mine - I was using 150 pound test

We ended up getting back to the dock an hour and a half late cause we had to bob around outside the harbor while the 3 mates cut the last of the fish - took then over three hours to cut fish.

There were about 50 on the CLipper and between bodies, gear and coolers things were a little "tight" .. . Josh, George and Anthony worked their butts off gaffing, tangles and everything else . . . we had a moon tide so we had to contend with that and some tangles were inevitable but most managed OK.

Everyone that knew which end of the rod to hold had 10 + fish - mostly all in the teens - pool fish was 26 or so. All fish were on jigs and teasers - bait did nothing.

If anyone goes I recommend a long strong leader - with no teaser - you'll catch plenty of fish with the jig alone, and avoid many of the tangles adn botton obsctuctions as well. As for jigs, use the cheapest 12 - 16 ounce diamond jigs you have.

Sorry - no pictures.
