went to OC friday night, got to the 50 brigde at 1am fished till morning. i must caught 50 rockfish,
12"-26". in the mornin me and my buddy went to broadkill to fish for trout. when we got there the wind was blownin north 25ph, so i put out some crab bait and shimp. all i caught were doggie, i did get a real good hit but when i went to set the
hook all i felt was
slick line. i saw the fish brake water before it broke my line. i think it was a bluefish. that evenin i went to IRI to try for rock and trout. i caught 3 little rocks. I got hung up in the rocks with the bucktail and when i got it lose something smack my bucktail an i was fightin the fish for a few min and then nothing, this happen twice. hopefully next weekend will be better

Time to put a stinger on your bucktails. I like to add an Owner 7/0 Stinger Siwash Hook to my bucktails especially if there are blues in the area. It's a common practice when trolling. You'll very seldom loose a fish.
