Thanks Greg... Nice seeing you again. Those surface fish are tough to track down in "lumpy" conditions. Some might go so far as to say Saturday was huge and gnarly... especially at the launch. Always nice to have LJ to ourselves.

I'm in awe at your persistence with the downrigger. Probably because Greg knows that any one of those sharks could've easily ended up being a 40# flat fish in his lap...

Those people looking for lessons or tips, you can learn a lot from posts like this. Know your target species, and persist in hunting it. Despite other species caught nearby, despite bad conditions, despite bad reports. Commit yourself completely to your target. So many times I've watched guys fish YT for 3 hours in the early morning and then give up and change tactics, only to have the school blow up at 10am with nobody around. As always... if you hear a report, it's too late.
