Wanted to get out this weekend but the wind sucked too bad for my boat, so took a vacation day. Ran out to the Gully, birds working, trolled around for a few hours ,all we picked up was some monster blues. Headed over to Mudhole and trolled for awhile but couldn't get anything. Headed to coxes, trolled a bit, then dropped some jigs for cod.
While jigging for cod, saw a few marks. Next thing I know on the drop, fish takes off with my jig, set the hook and it screams off. I was trying out my new spinal rod with my new Alutecnos gorilla reel to jig with so I was over gunned, 5 mins later we're gaffing the little guy!
On the way back in about 14 miles out, we saw a school going airborne. We got one cast into them before they went down. Never came up again. Kind of a slow day but nice to score 1st time out.
