Me and Trina (my wife) went on a
Morning Star Long Range trip yesterday.
The boat left the marina at 6am and
headed out for 3hrs before dropping
anchor. We passed through an
area called the Jack Spot on the
way out. We made about 3 or 4
drops all day. The bite was as
advertised....slow/funny bite...very
large fish. The seabass at the deepest
drop wanted nothing but fresh clams.
They wanted the bait to sit on the
bottom and then they would just
pick it up and run with it. As we
started working our way back in
I started tossing out a few green crabs.
Did not get a single bite in the deeper
drops so I immediately went back to
fishing for seabass since they were
of very nice size. On the last and
final drop we were in about 75' and
the tog were there and hungary.
Caught two keepers @17" with one
throw back in about 20 mins. Got back
to the marina at 4:30. We got a total
of 36 real nice seabass which gave us
more meat then we get on a regular trip
when we both limit out.
