The conditions were so good I paddled out to the farthest Island and found fish on the drop off from 10 to 20 ft. Used the Fluke and Big Hammers coated in Uni Butter that was in my pocket and liquified so it really coated the baits. The key stop the retrieve at the first bite and let the fish take it any other way no hook up. Saw the birds diving north of the Island

Caught over a dozen Sandies still haven't found any spotties yet.

Had 3 fish that pulled enough drag to get into the rocks going to have to use 15 lb next time.

Anyway the winning fish
