Thanks for the report. Headed out on Thursday, but definitely not trying to threshers. Looks like by-catch will be a good possibility

I am interested in catching a thresher. Never really fished for them. And have only been to DP twice. Any tips on technique and location would be more then helpful.

Troll a mack in 60'-80'. They're like vermin right now. At the slack high tide they are more likely at the surface.

Are you fishing for them straight out of the entrance. I have only been to the right up towards the rock and kelp bed to the north.

Nice catch. I was out Sunday and there was tons of bait outside the jetty with lots of birds crashing around sunset. I couldn't keep the macks off my Waxwing! Not sure how they think they can eat something that big but they sure tried. On the south side of the pipe I was pulling up 3-6 lizards at a time on the sabiki. No luck for me on the butts that day but DP is looking pretty good right now.
