Well, We went out with Cato on Monday, What a hoot. Our usual spot East of the inlet was full of cold water so Cato says "He knows this other spot that is good". Soooo off we go for the 43 mile run to the "Secret Spot". Pretty nice morning and a nice long boat ride and we were making the first drop, in 370 ft. of water.
Sea Bass up to 4 lbs. and bunchs of them. Off to spot no. two and another drop in 420 ft. Tile fish and Sea Bass. Next some Groupers mixed in and more Tiles to 8 lbs. Ended up with a nice batch of Sea Bass, TileFish two Snowy Grouper and a Strawberry Grouper for good measure.
If you have never done this kind of trip, Be prepared. 400 ft. is way down there and it is Work to get 5 hooks up. Not for the relaxing kinda deal.
PS We did run through a really interesting thunder and Lightning storm 7 miles from the inlet on the way in, Kinda lets ya know where you stand with the "Cosmic Powers", if ya know what I mean.
