Hang in there Brian...My uncle has yet to catch that keeper this year as well. We were out early this morning and nothing. We did see 1 blue and 1 short caught at the inlet but that was it. About 5:30 this morning a large pod of dolphin went by ans I told my uncle there goes the fishing. When you see a large pod like that the other fish just scatter.
I am going to try to be out there Friday night for a few hours. I don't know if it will be an all nighter but I have to try at least once more this New Moon.
Happy Catching
Paul
