rippin lip 8/12 cownose hell
« on: August 13, 2013, 03:10:48 AM »
Left the dock around noon. Headed out to some 50' water. Picked away at a bunch of shorts then the drift stopped and then the scates came. Headed to the beach to find some movement. Nice drift then things got crazy. 6 lines in the water. First one takes off then another one. Total of 5 lines buzzing away. Holly Cow! At first thought it was a school of blues. Look at the fish finder and it is nothing but marks. Cleared the 6th line while working the others. One breaks off then 2 more. Still had 2 hooked up. after a few minutes pull up 2 huge cownose rays. crap rgmn

Made a move back out to the channels with a better drift and a bunch of shorts dock side at 6, 24oz lighter on lead.  thd think I need to figure out why I do this so much. Oh yeah, I am glutton for punishment.
The secret to catching fish is, to fish, where the fish are.

Nice report.  5 lines at once is tough.

Nice report.  Not that I'd want the tangles, but at least you had action, and those rays are cool looking fish. t^
