The seas were very nice, and lots of fish were hooked up. There was a nice temp break out 26 miles and we were lucky enough to get two strikes and boat one fish!!! Then the bad weather set in, if only it was open Fri and Sat.

Nice going John. We had exactly the same thing. Had a double, and one broke off on it's second run. I've heard of some fish being caught closer in, so maybe we won't have to make that long (for this time of year) run offshore next week. Also heard that those fish have moved even further off.

Guess we met in a sort of odd situation, didn't we? I'll give you a call Monday. I'm planning on fishing Wed. and Thurs. for sure. And maybe Tuesday as well.

Guys, it IS open Fri, Sat, Sun. NMFS waived the rfd's for Decmeber adn I suspect they'll do the same in January. Have a very Merry Christmas!!!
