Broke the inlet yesterday around 0700 with my buddy Brian in hopes of finding some sharks. Seas were flat with 3' swells at 12 seconds. Was able to turn a comfortable 30k on the way out. Drifted the west and east walls of Monsters Ledge without a sniff. Water was clear green and 69F. As forecast winds picked up later in the morning. After burning our chum we moved in to the SRR. I marked tons of sea bass on the rock piles and managed to lose two decent fish (I'd imagine blues) on an Ava57. Brought in one nice size seabass caught on an Ava57. I am certain the reef will be packed on Monday!
Came home in a washing machine of 4' from the SW making for an 18-22k ride.
